AI at Middlebury

For Staff

As a Middlebury staff member, you may encounter generative AI tools like Microsoft Copilot, Google Gemini, Adobe Firefly, or Zoom AI Companion in your daily work. These tools, when used correctly, can help generate ideas, automatically take notes in meetings, and increase productivity. However, it’s essential to use them responsibly and within Middlebury’s policies.

Key Considerations

Staff using AI tools are expected to adhere to Middlebury’s Responsible Use and Information Security policies. Be mindful of how AI can impact data privacy, security, and ethical standards. Some important practices to keep in mind:

  • Avoid sharing sensitive information: Never input personal or confidential data (e.g., passwords, account credentials) into any AI tool.
  • Stay engaged: Don’t rely on AI to operate autonomously—human oversight is always needed to guide and review output.
