You're lucky there's a higher up that could talk down the even higher ups. Though, sometimes it's not even about the r&d teams.
I saw company wide HR educational emails or courses telling you how to improve you work quality/efficiency, and one of them tells us to "research AI" and learn how to utilize it, talking about how great it is and improved the work efficiency by 30%. Sure, it has its uses, but I won't go touting how great it is. And with how ChatGPT works, you have to be the biggest idiot in the world to upload all your sensitive stuff to ChatGPT just for it to make a spreadsheet faster. But without these disclaimers in the email, I doubt regular clerical staff knows about this, and it's extremely dangerous.
