5. AI and Machine Learning Usage

FlowMind uses artificial intelligence and large language models (LLMs) to generate insights and predictions about team retention. Important considerations:

5.1 Non-Deterministic Nature

  • AI-generated insights are probabilistic and may vary between analyses
  • LLMs may produce different outputs for similar inputs due to their non-deterministic nature
  • Generated content should be reviewed and validated by human judgment
  • Predictions and insights are not guarantees of future outcomes

5.2 Accuracy Disclaimer

⚠️ Important: While our AI models strive for accuracy, the insights, predictions, and recommendations generated by FlowMind's AI systems may not be entirely factual or accurate. These outputs should be used as one input among many in your decision-making process, not as the sole basis for important personnel decisions.

5.3 Data Processing for AI

  • Survey responses are processed through ML models for pattern recognition
  • Aggregated data is analyzed to identify trends and risk factors
  • Individual predictions are based on statistical patterns, not certainties
  • We use Claude (Anthropic) for natural language processing and insights generation

5.4 Human Oversight

We strongly recommend that all AI-generated insights be reviewed by qualified human resources professionals or team leaders before taking any action based on the predictions or recommendations.

6. Data Security

We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your data, including:

  • Encryption of data in transit and at rest
  • Regular security assessments and updates
  • Access controls and authentication
