Microsoft Copilot is available to all UW-Green Bay faculty, staff, and students with enhanced data protections when signed in with a UWGB account. Copilot is Microsoft’s generative artificial intelligence (AI) platform and can be used to generate written and visual content based on user prompts. Copilot has access to current internet data, enabling it to provide up-to-date responses to requests, but its responses may contain inaccuracies.
