Microsoft Copilot is an AI tool that utilizes large language models (LLMs) and integrates data with Microsoft 365 applications such as Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, and Teams. Currently, the university has access to the Microsoft Copilot browser version, which you can log into using your university login.
Logged-in users of Microsoft Copilot have several advantages. These include access to a more powerful model, the ability to have longer conversations with AI, and especially enhanced data protection. When you log in with a student or employee account, Copilot provides commercial data protection - meaning your data is better protected and not shared with third parties.
