Power Platform – Automatically enabling copilots and generative AI capabilities with Bing in commercial environments

Originally posted by Microsoft Mar 30, 2024 Uncategorized 0 Comments

Between April 10, 2024, and April 24, 2024, we are rolling out a change that will automatically enable copilots and generative AI features in Microsoft Power Platform and Microsoft Dynamics 365 within all commercial environments.

How does this affect me?

Last year, we provided a setting, “Move data across regions” in the environment settings page in the Power Platform admin center to enable these AI features in environments outside of regions where data remains within geographic compliance boundaries. Power Platform and Dynamics 365 now monitor for abusive or harmful uses of generative AI features with transient processing, so no customer data is stored outside of region. Following this change, we will now be automatically enabling these features in all environments in all commercial regions between April 10, 2024, and April 24, 2024.

In parallel with this change, we are also automatically enabling the Power Platform Admin Center setting for generative AI features that use Bing search in all commercial environments.

• Please note, Fedramp customers with environments in commercial regions will be excluded from this change, and this will not be automatically enabled.

What do I need to do to prepare?

This message is for awareness and no action is required, if you have already taken action to turn either of these features off, they will not be reenabled.

More information regarding these features and changes can be found in this documentation: Enable copilots and generative AI features outside United States.

If you prefer to disable AI features that use these settings, you may do so after April 24, 2024, by following the instructions in this documentation: Disable data across geographic locations outside the United States.
