AI in corporate training is no longer a future concept. Today, organisations can turn internal policies and documents into fully-fledged learning content using AI-powered tools in just a few minutes. This has made training faster, more scalable and more interactive.
However, there is a growing concern behind the convenience. What exactly happens to the data you upload? And are you unknowingly putting your intellectual property at risk?
The Hidden Cost of AI in Learning and Development
Across the learning and development space, AI is being used to streamline course design, simplify onboarding, and automate assessments. While these benefits are clear, many AI tools come with serious data privacy implications.
Some AI platforms store the documents you upload. Others may use your content to train their models without your knowledge. Internal training guides, HR documents, strategy reports and client materials could all end up helping to improve someone else’s system.
If your organisation operates in the EU or handles data relating to EU citizens, this can quickly become a legal problem. Uploading data into tools that are not GDPR-compliant puts your business at risk of large fines and reputational damage.

To highlight these issues more clearly, we’ve created a short video that explains the dangers of using the wrong AI tools in training. The video outlines how some providers handle your content, what their vague terms and conditions might really mean, and why you should pause before hitting upload.
