ITS is now offering a generative AI platform available to all active U-M faculty, staff, and students on the Ann Arbor, Flint, and Dearborn campuses and Michigan Medicine. These service offerings are equitable, accessible, and support everything from basic consumer usage to advanced research and experimentation.

Our most accessible ITS AI service is U-M GPT, a tool that provides access to popular hosted AI models such as Azure OpenAI and U-M hosted open-source large language models. - U-M Maizey
U-M Maizey is a tool that allows U-M faculty, staff, and students to enrich their GenAI experience based on a custom dataset they provide. This service empowers users to extract valuable insights, discover patterns, and gain deeper knowledge from the available datasets. It is important to note that U-M Maizey is a new technology and we are looking forward to working with you to improve it. - U-M GPT Toolkit
