## Availability and Restrictions

Not all AI models and Now Assist features are available to customers with in-country SKUs, in certain regulated or restricted data centers (such as FedRAMP, NSC DOD IL5, Australia IRAP-Protected), self-hosted environments, or specific regions. Customers should check ServiceNow's knowledge base articles and release notes for current availability and restrictions.

## Data Processing and Privacy

Now Assist processes data by transferring it from customer instances to centralized ServiceNow environments, potentially hosted on third-party cloud providers like Microsoft Azure. Data handling complies with ServiceNow's internal policies and compliance standards. ServiceNow collects inputs, outputs, and usage metrics to improve AI technologies, with customers having the option to opt out of data collection at any time.

## AI Limitations and Best Practices

Generative AI outputs may not always be accurate, complete, or suitable for all use cases. Customers are responsible for validating AI-generated content, maintaining human oversight, and avoiding sole reliance on AI for critical decisions, especially in sensitive domains such as healthcare, finance, legal, employment, security, or infrastructure. Users must adhere to ServiceNow's AI Acceptable Use Policy.

## Support and Troubleshooting

For assistance, customers can access the ServiceNow Community, consult the Known Error Portal, or contact Customer Service and Support for workflow automation issues related to Now Assist.  
ServiceNow Otto for Creator includes generative AI skills that can make developing on the ServiceNow AI Platform more efficient.

## AI limitations {#now-assist-for-creator-landing__id_p2h_q5k_dcc}

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-for-creator-landing__p_kv2_nfg_h1c}

## Data processing {#now-assist-for-creator-landing__id_lmn_jtk_dcc}

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-for-creator-landing__p_lv2_nfg_h1c}
