University Supported Resources with Artificial Intelligence (AI) Capabilities
To maximize privacy of personal data when interacting with an application's AI features, users are encouraged to log in to W&L licensed software using university credentials on application sign up pages or through MyApps.wlu.edu. This ensures that, when possible, your interactions are not stored for the purpose of training outside large language models.
Box AI is a new suite of capabilities that natively integrates advanced AI models into the Content Cloud.

Microsoft Copilot is available to both students and employees through web and mobile app versions. To log in, follow these steps:
- Visit copilot.microsoft.com in your web browser.
- Sign in using your W&L credentials.
When you use Microsoft Copilot with your university account, it automatically includes commercial data protection. This feature ensures that prompts and responses in Copilot are not used to train the underlying AI models. Additionally:
- Chat data sent to and from Copilot with commercial data protection is encrypted during the chat session.
- Information about your account and organization is only used to determine eligibility for commercial data protection. After that, it is removed from chat data and is no longer associated with your session.
- Bing Search queries triggered by your prompts in Copilot are not linked to your account or organization.
Please note that W&L does not currently provide students or employees with a license for Microsoft 365 Copilot, which offers access to Copilot within applications like Outlook, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, OneNote, and Teams.
