About Event

Generative AI platforms are evolving rapidly, and organisations are increasingly faced with decisions about which tools best align with their governance, security, and operational requirements.

This interactive workshop provides a comparative examination of five leading generative AI platforms: ChatGPT, Microsoft Copilot, Google Gemini, Anthropic Claude, and Perplexity. Rather than focusing solely on functionality, the course explores the governance models, privacy frameworks, compliance considerations, and risk implications of each platform.

Participants will gain a deeper understanding of the trade-offs between innovation, security, transparency, and organisational control, enabling more informed decisions regarding AI deployment and governance strategies.

Learning Outcomes

By the end of this workshop, participants will be able to:

  • Evaluate risk differences across major AI platforms.

  • Assess governance implications of feature-driven AI innovation.

  • Understand infrastructure, sovereignty, and third-party risk considerations.

  • Examine the legal and security risks associated with open and self-hosted AI models.

  • Develop approaches for cross-platform governance and shadow AI detection.

  • Support centralised AI policy and risk management activities across the organisation.
