A learning AI partner: feedback from the community
It is important for us to emphasise that the AI Copilot is not infallible and is still in the development phase. To further improve the answers and extend the functionality of the tool, the community is encouraged to actively provide feedback. User feedback is crucial to continuously train the copilot and ensure that the information is accurate and up-to-date.
