Swedish Government Offices Ban ChatGPT and Claude
Starting next week, the Swedish Government Offices (Regeringskansliet) will ban ChatGPT and Claude on employees' work computers, requiring the use of approved AI tools, including Microsoft Copilot. The agency had previously restricted DeepSeek.
The digital director stated on an internal website that using uncontracted AI services could compromise information security. The Swedish Tax Agency and the Swedish Prison and Probation Service (SiS) have already implemented similar bans, while Kronofogden is considering whether to follow suit. Some employees will still be able to access both services through a self-developed platform.
