AI Settings

The Skillsoft Percipio platform includes certain features which leverage artificial intelligence. At Skillsoft, we are committed to the responsible development and ethical use of artificial intelligence (AI) in our products and services. We strive to be transparent about how and where we use AI and take responsibility for its performance, making sure it operates as intended and taking corrective action when necessary. In addition, we regularly audit and update our algorithms to prevent discriminatory outcomes and ensure fair access to learning opportunities for all users. Finally, we prioritize user privacy and data security. We develop our AI systems with robust safeguards to protect confidentiality and we adhere to the highest standards of data protection.In addition, you can view the Skillsoft Responsible AI statement.

It is with this eye toward privacy and data security that we offer AI settings to help you navigate how AI plays a part in your organization.

When on, learners have access to the AI Assistant. Powered by ChatGPT technology, the AI Assistant enables learners to have a dialogue to help them find the exact content needed to meet their learning needs. The learner initiates the interaction by entering a request and the AI Assistant responds with recommended content or a clarifying question.

Decide on the default privacy setting, AI optimization and improvement. When on, Skillsoft collects the learner side of the AI conversation to help make improvements, this does not include learner personal information. When it is on, a learner can choose to turn off their setting if they are not comfortable sharing their side of the conversation. When off, Skillsoft will never collect the learner side of the AI conversation and learners will not be able to provide feedback about their AI interactions. Learners can't change their setting to on, when AI optimization and improvement is off.

For more information on the AI Assistant, see AI Assistant FAQs.

Skillsoft offers CAISY™, a Conversation Artificial Intelligence Simulator. CAISY provides interactive, scenario-based content powered by AI where a learner can practice new skills in a safe space. This AI simulation content allows learners to choose a role, practice specific skills by responding to AI prompts, and receive adaptive, personalized feedback to guide their development.

If you have any one of the Skillsoft Expert collections or the Skillsoft Leadership Development Program, you can make this content visible to learners by turning on the Skillsoft's Conversation AI simulator (CAISY) setting. This setting is on by default for US-based learners. You can check your collection from the License Pools page. Reach out to your Skillsoft account team if you have questions.

If you manage your Skillsoft Compliance content within the Percipio interface and not in the separate Compliance interface, this setting also displays CAISY AI compliance courses in the Percipio library.

To show content generated by CAISY, turn on Skillsoft's Conversation AI simulator (CAISY) setting.

This setting is on by default. When on, Percipio AI will respond as soon as a learner submits a question to the Q&A tab of a Skillsoft course. AI answers will be provided for relevant knowledge-based questions only. If the question is not relevant , AI will not answer. You must also make sure the setting to display the Q&A tab, located on the Engagement & Notifications page under Social Learning, is enabled. You can set up subject matter experts (SME) to monitor AI responses.
