The generative AI skills are available to the sam_user and the sam_admin roles.

Custom role configurations for accessing generative AI skills are preserved. For example, if you added an alternative role such as the sam_admin role instead of the default sam_user role, the sam_admin role
retains access, while the sam_user role loses access, based on the custom configuration.

The sam_user role includes the Otto Admin User (sn_nowassist_admin.user) role. The sam_user role has read-only access to the Otto Admin to view the generative AI skills.
