        "summary": "Indonesian telecoms giant PT Telkom Indonesia has issued a warning about data breach risks associated with using publicly accessible artificial intelligence applications such as ChatGPT and Gemini for business purposes. Telkom's Executive General Manager for Digital Products emphasised that companies must establish strict policies limiting employee access to public AI platforms for confidential internal documents, as uploaded information may be stored on external servers and potentially exposed to competitors or other unauthorised parties. Telkom recommends that organisations instead develop and deploy internal AI solutions to maintain data security whilst still benefiting from artificial intelligence capabilities.",
        "content": "<p>Jakarta \u2014 Telecommunications company PT Telkom Indonesia has\ncautioned against the data breach risks posed by using publicly\naccessible artificial intelligence (AI) websites or applications such as\nChatGPT, Gemini, and similar services to assist with work and business\nactivities.<\/p>\n<p>Komang Budi Aryasa, Executive General Manager for Digital Products at\nTelkom Indonesia, stated that it is crucial for companies to establish\nrestrictions on employees\u2019 use of AI tools.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe key restriction is that internal company documents and\nrequirements must not be queried through open applications like ChatGPT\nthat are freely accessible to the general public. This is because any\ndata uploaded potentially risks being leaked,\u201d Komang said during a\nmedia briefing in Jakarta on Monday.<\/p>\n<p>He acknowledged that whilst AI usage in the workplace is indeed very\nconvenient and helpful for workers, caution must be exercised.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen we upload a document, it is stored on their servers. When\nanother person submits a similar prompt, our document could be delivered\nto that other person\u2014potentially even to a business competitor or\nirresponsible individuals. That is how data breaches occur,\u201d Komang\nexplained.<\/p>\n<p>For this reason, Komang emphasised that companies must establish firm\nrules governing AI use in the workplace.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCompanies must anticipate these risks. It is not easy, certainly.\nCompanies now need top-down governance\u2014they must issue clear policies\nwith proper enforcement mechanisms,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf assistance is needed, use the internal GPT system that we have\nalready developed. The results are the same,\u201d Komang added.<\/p>",
