LUMI Idea - Discussions

LUMI AI in Brightspace

LUMI is now available inside Brightspace, for faculty only. LUMI leverages Anthropic’s Large Language Model (LLM) Claude by using content provided by the course creator.  

SUNY’s agreement with D2L protects Faculty intellectual property by ensuring that:

  • D2L does not own input content
  • D2L does not own output content
  • D2L will not use input content to train their Generative AI models

SUNY’s agreement with D2L requires that users will not represent that output content is human generated when it is not.
