Faria Generative Artificial Intelligence (AI): Acceptable Usage Policy

Introduction

While Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) is just starting to scratch the surface of what it can do, we, at Faria, are excited about how it can help transform and support the work being done by educators around the world. We believe we must be intentional with its use and we wanted to share our vision for GenAI at Faria and share our responsibility for our employees and to our customers. The Vision for the integration of generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) into Faria’s services is as follows:

1. To commit to advancing education by integrating transformative technologies throughout our platforms in a consistent way
2. To promote the ethical use of GenAI through designs that maximize AI’s utility while also ensuring responsible use
3. To offer GenAI services with better transparency, intentionality, and personalization than our competition
4. To establish trust by utilizing focus groups and feedback sessions to inform product development and prioritization
5. To supercharge customer support by enabling more productive agent problem-solving with GenAI technologies.

Faria is therefore committed to providing a safe and secure environment for all its employees, contractors, partners and customers, including our responsible use of generative AI tooling.
