Microsoft Copilot is a powerful generative AI tool where an AI chatbot can help answer questions, generate content, and more! Microsoft Copilot can be accessed via Microsoft Edge.  </p> <p>It is crucial to use the Commercial Data Protection (secure) version for Â鶹AV-related tasks. A public version of Copilot is available, but it does not conform to the University’s privacy and data protection standards and should not be used for Â鶹AV-related purposes.  </p> Thu, 27 Jun 2024 14:58:58 +0000 James Martin 46018 at /it COL 101 - Intro to MS Teams for Faculty & Staff /it/channels/event/col-101-intro-ms-teams-faculty-staff-331306 <hr /> <p class="note"><strong>NOTE:</strong> Due to the pandemic, this course will be held remotely, via Webex or MS Teams.
