Limitations 

• Microsoft Copilot Enterprise is available for USF student, faculty, and staff use. Visit University Guidance | University of South Florida for USF guidance on the ethical use of generative AI.
• While data is protected within the USF ecosystem and not passed on to Microsoft, know that encrypted, de-identified prompts may be processed on servers outside the United States. Thus, if funding restrictions require all data to be housed within the United States, Microsoft Copilot Enterprise should not be used.
• Microsoft Copilot Enterprise cannot be used to develop new similar or competing products, nor reverse engineered.
• Microsoft Copilot Enterprise uses the latest language models from OpenAI. As with all generative AI tools, the following considerations should always be employed:
  • Verify facts and cross-check information, as generative AI models can create incorrect information. Users are still responsible for the validity and usefulness of the content generated by these AI tools.
  • Remember that models generate content based on training that can include biases. Be aware of this potential and actively work to ensure negative impacts are minimized.
  • Generative AI is not a replacement for critical thinking. Use these tools to complement your ideation, brainstorming, and own creativity. Ensure your unique voice remains centered in your work.
  • Respect copyright and original authorship, ensuring that information is properly cited, and original works are credited.
• Understand that the Microsoft Copilot Enterprise is subject to changes in features and availability as developed by Microsoft.
