    About this task

    By opting out of the ServiceNow customer data sharing program, you can no longer provide data to improve ServiceNow AI products. By sharing data with the ServiceNow AI development program, you provide relevant data to help improve prediction accuracy, user experience, tailor products to your business needs, and reduce hallucinations for your activated Now Assist skills.

    You can choose to opt out a ServiceNow instance from data sharing from the Now Assist Admin console if you don't want to participate. Repeat the opt-out process for all instances that use the Now Assist functionality.

    Opting out can take up to five business days to process.
