The fix is not to stop using AI. That ship has sailed.

Has it? Has it really?

It seems to me any company that processes confidential data should disable AI tools that read employee emails (or documents in general) for the same reason they, e.g., disable links to potentially malicious websites and ban the use of unapproved flash drives. That is, because it's an obvious and unnecessary security risk.
