Automate Claude Safely

I've been playing a game lately where I take a sip of my cold brew every time I overhear someone say they're 'building with AI'. Let's just say I'm well-caffeinated. But IT admins might not be so amused, especially if everyone's handing AI tools like Claude access to their work apps without proper oversight. This is a recipe for disaster.

What's the Problem?

The issue is that AI tools can sometimes do things they shouldn't, and when they're connected to your work apps, the consequences can be severe. This is why governance is key when it comes to automating with AI. You need to make sure that your AI tools are playing by the rules and not causing more problems than they're solving.
