AI: ChatGPT a New Tool for Smarter Safety

About the current edition

An early look at AI in safety work.

AI: ChatGPT a New Tool for Smarter Safety is Todd Jerome Jenkins’s 2024 exploration of ways ChatGPT can support safety professionals. The published edition addresses communication, administration, and practical examples. It offers an earlier treatment of a tool whose capabilities and interfaces continue to change.

The current edition remains available, and a substantially revised second edition is in progress. The purchase links on this page are for the published edition. Readers can explore the related articles below alongside the book when considering how its examples connect to their present work.

Who this book is for

The book is for safety professionals interested in exploring AI as a supporting tool. Its communication and administration focus may be useful when you are considering where drafting assistance belongs in your workflow and where professional review is essential.

Start with a defined task rather than a general expectation that AI will solve a safety problem. What are you trying to prepare? What information can you provide appropriately? Who will review the result, and what must be checked before anyone relies on it?

What it covers

The published 2024 edition explores ChatGPT in safety communication and administration through practical examples. Readers approaching it today can consider those examples in light of their own workflows and check the current tool before putting an example into use.

A draft is a starting point for review. When using an AI-assisted workflow in safety practice, the important questions include whether the material matches the actual task, whether requirements have been checked, and whether the people responsible for the work have reviewed the result. The site’s related articles develop those questions in specific contexts.
