When using Microsoft Copilot, please ensure you are logged in with your Citadel credentials, as this provides enhanced data privacy features not available in public versions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Understanding Risks with Non-Citadel-Approved Tools:<\/strong> Using non-Citadel-approved tools may involve privacy risks, such as the tool using data shared with it for future model training.

Many tools, including Microsoft Copilot, maintain a history of your chats, which can be referenced and shared with your instructors as needed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Before engaging with Generative AI tools, it is essential to understand the established policies and best practices for their responsible use at 糖心VLOG.
