    From experience in an IT-department, I would say mainly a combination of management pressure and need to make security problems manageable by choosing AI tools to push on users before too many users start using third party tools.

    Yes, they will create security problems anyway, but maybe, just maybe, users won’t copy paste sensitive business documents into third party web pages?

      I can see that. It becomes kind of a protection racket: Pay our subscription fees, or data breaches are going to befall you, and you will only have yourself (and your chatbot-addicted employees) to blame.
