Does this change alter how existing customer data is processed, stored, or accessed (e.g., documents, emails, chats)?	Yes. The AI video creator now processes documents (Word, PowerPoint, PDF) to generate video content, which may involve parsing and temporarily caching document data for rendering and editing purposes.
Does this change provide end users any new way of interacting with generative AI?	Yes. Users can now interact with generative AI to create and edit videos using text prompts and document inputs, including transcript-based editing and voice generation.
