AI practice for civil servants and office staff
Short exercises for people who write letters, handle applications and keep records, and want AI's help without leaking anyone's data.
Hi, I'm Kit. A chatbot can save you a lot of typing, as long as personal data stays out and a person checks what goes out with the office's name on it. Each exercise takes a few minutes, and I'll keep your ticks in this browser.
Who it's for
- You draft letters, notices and meeting notes every week.
- You handle forms and files with citizens' or customers' details.
- You want to know what your office may put into an AI tool.
