Important Note
While AI tools like CoPilot can significantly enhance productivity, they should be used thoughtfully. Always verify AI-generated content against reliable sources and apply critical thinking in your work. Also, be careful sharing anything private or confidential, such as personally identifiable information (PII) and intellectual property, with any AI platform, especially free versions. Students should also consult their class syllabus for guidance on which AI technology is permitted in their courses.
