This is the best summary I could come up with:


“Users must not attempt to access public AI applications (such as ChatGPT) when undertaking DWP business, or on DWP-approved devices,” the guidance now reads.

The department is exploring how AI could help staff complete writing tasks and assist work coaches with clients in job centers.

The DWP is trialing an internal tool based on Microsoft Copilot, a digital assistant, to help automate tasks, Civil Service World reported.

It’s currently unclear why the DWP moved to scrap OpenAI’s ChatGPT and experiment with internal tools, but it’s likely the department is the latest body to decide privacy concerns around the LLM were too great to ignore.

We actively work to reduce personal data in training our systems like ChatGPT, which also rejects requests for private or sensitive information about people.”

The framework outlined 10 key principles staff should uphold when using generative AI, covering ethics, laws, and understanding of the technology’s limitations.
