## Key Features

* **Incident Summarization:** Automatically consolidates incident details to provide a clear overview.
* **Resolution Note Generation:** Creates comprehensive notes to document incident resolutions efficiently.
* **Chat Summarization:** Summarizes chat interactions to help agents capture essential communication points.
* **Generative AI Capabilities:** Utilizes AI to assist with ITSM tasks, including autonomous task completion via Agentic AI.
* **Configurability:** Allows customers to configure the application to align with their ITSM workflows.

## Important Considerations

* Not all AI model providers or features are available in all regions or environments, including in-country SKUs, FedRAMP, NSC DOD IL5, Australia IRAP-Protected data centers, self-hosted customers, or other restricted environments.
* ServiceNow regularly updates availability; customers should monitor release notes and knowledge base articles for the latest information.
* The application uses AI and machine learning, which may not always produce fully accurate or appropriate results; human oversight is essential, especially in sensitive areas like healthcare, finance, legal, security, and infrastructure.
* Users must adhere to ServiceNow's AI Acceptable Use Policy.

## Data Processing and Privacy

Data from customer instances is transferred to a centralized ServiceNow environment, potentially hosted in different data center regions or third-party cloud providers such as Microsoft Azure. Data handling complies with ServiceNow's internal policies and CORE Compliance Portal standards.

Inputs, outputs, and edits generated by the application, including incident data and chat transcripts, are collected to improve ServiceNow AI technologies. Customers can opt out of future data collection at any time.

## Support and Troubleshooting

* Customers can access the ServiceNow Community on AI and Intelligence for peer support.
* Known error articles are available via the Known Error Portal.
* Direct assistance is available through ServiceNow Customer Service and Support.  
Use the ServiceNow Otto for IT Service Management (ITSM) application to summarize the incident information, generate incident resolution notes, and summarize the chat for an interaction. You can enable your agents to understand the chat and incident
context so that they can propose quicker resolutions to your requesters.

## AI limitations {#now-assist-itsm__section_w4v_wxm_xyb}

This application uses artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning, which are rapidly evolving fields of study that generate predictions based on patterns in data. As a result, this application may not
always produce accurate, complete, or appropriate information. Furthermore, there is no guarantee that this application has been fully trained or tested for your use case. To mitigate these issues, it is your responsibility
to test and evaluate your use of this application for accuracy, harm, and appropriateness for your use case, employ human oversight of output, and refrain from relying solely on AI-generated outputs for decision-making
purposes. This is especially important if you choose to deploy this application in areas with consequential impacts such as healthcare, finance, legal, employment, security, or infrastructure. You agree to abide by [ServiceNow's AI Acceptable Use Policy](https://www.servicenow.com/ai-acceptable-use-policy.html), which may be updated by ServiceNow.{#now-assist-itsm__p_kv2_nfg_h1c}

This application requires data to be transferred from ServiceNow customers' individual instances to a centralized ServiceNow environment, which may be located in a different data center region from the one where your instance is, and potentially to a third-party cloud provider, such as Microsoft Azure. This data is handled per ServiceNow's internal policies and procedures, including our policies available through our [CORE Compliance Portal](https://support.servicenow.com/kb?id=kb_article_view&sysparm_article=KB0564067).{#now-assist-itsm__p_lv2_nfg_h1c}
