Pitfalls to watch at work
Gemini in Google Docs
- Ask the model to take numbers only from the block you give and to write [CAUSE, confirm] where it wants to fill gaps: otherwise the explanation gets invented causes for variances
- The panel can pull any Drive file by link: make sure data from unrelated matters does not end up in the document
- After inserting a draft, check every figure against the source: the model rounds and flips signs without warning
Grammarly
- The extension reads everything you type in the browser, including form fields: decide in your corporate policy whether it is allowed on work computers
- Rewriting a sentence changes its legal meaning: in English contracts and claims, accept only spelling fixes
- For text in other languages the service offers almost no suggestions; use LanguageTool for that
