Governing Mistral Le Chat in practice
- Name one person who owns Mistral Le Chat in your business. Governance starts with a name.
- Write down what Mistral Le Chat is used for. Certrak recognises 4 common uses: General productivity assistance, Document analysis and review, Marketing content creation and Code generation and review. Yours may differ; write down yours.
- Decide what Mistral Le Chat may and may not be given. Internal business information is in scope, so name what stays out.
- Agree that a person reviews every output before it is used, and name who.
- Look at this again twice a year, and sooner on any of these: industry incidents and vendor model updates.
