Class was out, but the team was still hitting the books! ๐Ÿ“š๐Ÿ’ป
We spent the day trading the campus quad for the cutting edge at the Microsoft AI Tour. From next-gen automation to smarter workflows, university employees learned ways to bring the future of AI straight back to our campus. ๐Ÿš€โœจ

Ever clicked โ€œI agreeโ€ without time to read the fine print? CITEโ€™s FinePrint Copilot agent is available to all Cougarnet users and helps you understand risks before accepting online terms of service. ๐Ÿ”Ž

The agent reviews privacy policies and terms of service to explain data privacy practices, security implications, and user risks in clear, plain language. It does not provide legal advice and does not replace the university's formalized review process. It is intended to support independent assessments.

๐Ÿ‘‰ Provide the agent context (e.g., your role and intended tool use) for more tailored results. Access all CITE agents at https://uofh.sharepoint.com/sites/citelab/SitePages/GenAI.aspx

CITE has a large collection of resources for our employees and students. Visit https://uofh.sharepoint.com/sites/citelab to access our SharePoint site and our new chatbots! Note, upon first use, the agent's performance may be slow as it scans thousands of files, pages, videos, events, etc. Performance speed improves with continued use. ๐Ÿ’ฌ

Verify responses with our team as needed. If our virtual agent cannot answer your question or is incorrect, reach out to CITE 713-743-5918. โ˜Ž๏ธ

CITE has been together for a wonderfully long time. We have only started taking our group holiday photos in 2013. Enjoy a another trip down Farish Hall memory lane. ๐Ÿ’–๐Ÿ“ธ

As a bonus, today we feature the Farish Hall basement. It was primarily used for storage of CITE, Dean's Office, BOUNCE, other grants/programs, and furniture that is no longer in use. It also housed the Hwemudua Addictions and Health Disparities Laboratory (HAHDL), the Education Research Center (ERC), and the UH Facilities area.

We hope you enjoyed a quick trip down memory lane. The videos were a spur-of-the-moment idea, and in hindsight, we would have opened more doors to film on our last day of FH access. Not to worry, plenty of photos have been taken over the years of the building's exterior and interior. Reach out to CITE or the College Communications team if there is something in particular you would like to see.

Happy Thanksgiving! ๐Ÿ˜˜
