Context makes AI better — but some things should never go into a chat. Today is about one easy habit: keeping sensitive information out.
It takes seconds and protects you completely. Think of it as the seatbelt of using AI.

Useful, yes — but not the place for secrets. Sharing the wrong thing could expose you if data were ever mishandled or breached.
