The responsible use of AI
At Microsoft, responsible AI is a fundamental principle that drives the design, development, and deployment of AI technologies. Microsoft 365 Copilot is built with several core principles in mind to ensure it aligns with ethical considerations and empowers users responsibly.

Users should remain in control of their work and decisions, using Copilot as a supportive companion.

Copilot is continuously monitored and improved by a team of experts who ensure that it adheres to ethical guidelines and aligns with user expectations. User feedback and input play a crucial role in shaping the future development of Copilot.
- User Empowerment and Control: Microsoft believes in empowering users and providing them with control over their AI experiences. Copilot is designed to be customizable and adaptable, allowing users to set their preferences and make informed decisions about the level of assistance they desire.
