Harvard provides access to secure and robust AI platforms to safeguard privacy. 

HUIT AI Sandbox

  • Ensures privacy and security by preventing third-party access to chats.
  • Can be used for image generation, data visualization, and the ability to upload multiple files.
  • Does not support creating custom GPTs.
  • Faculty, instructional staff, and administrative staff can log in to the HUIT AI Sandbox here.

HUIT has provided initial guidelines for the use of generative AI tools at Harvard

 

Google Gemini

  • As part of Harvard's Google Workspace, Gemini is integrated directly into Harvard Google accounts (Gmail, Docs, Drive, etc.).
  • Provides all FAS students, faculty, and staff with access to Gemini as part of the standard Harvard Google Workspace tools. Instructors should note that Gemini will be the primary AI service available to all FAS students in the coming academic year, making it a good option if they wish to incorporate AI into coursework.
  • Includes access to NotebookLM, Google’s AI-powered research and note-taking tool.
  • For assistance with Gemini access or account setup, contact HUIT (see the Harvard Google Workspace page for details).
