Staying safe
What should I never tell an AI?
Some things are private. Keep your full address, passwords, phone number, money details, and ID numbers out of AI chats. If a task seems to need personal information, stop and check with a person you trust before sharing anything.
The steps
- Learn the private list: address, passwords, phone number, money details, ID numbers.
- If a chat asks for any of them, do not answer.
- Practice saying: I keep that private.
- Show the chat to a person you trust.
- Feel strong. Refusing is the skill.
Stay safe
- A real helper never needs your password. Ever.
- Not sure if something is private? Ask before you share.
