Recursive summarization breaks down large inputs into smaller pieces, summarizes those pieces, and then recombines them to make the original call. This process prevents important context from being lost when submitting requests to the LLM, which can result in more accurate responses with fewer hallucinations. [Integrate with Aleph Alpha models](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=configure-api-credentials-for-aleph-alpha&family=washingtondc&ft:locale=en-US) : Bring your own API credentials and connect Aleph Alpha's Luminous LLM with the ServiceNow AI Platform. [Integrate with IBM watsonx models](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=configure-api-credentials-for-ibm-watsonx&family=washingtondc&ft:locale=en-US) : Use your own API credentials to connect to IBM watsonx's Granite LLMs with the ServiceNow AI Platform. [Integrate with external LLMs](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=configure-api-credentials-for-a-generic-large-language-model-llm&family=washingtondc&ft:locale=en-US) : Connect API credentials with a generic LLM connector and use an external LLM on the ServiceNow AI Platform. [Semantic filter for sensitive content in generative AI conversations](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=add-semantic-filtering-for-sensitive-information&family=washingtondc&ft:locale=en-US) : Use AI Semantic Search to help determine if sensitive content is being discussed, such as workplace misconduct or employee health concerns, and trigger a switch to a different Virtual Agent topic. [Disable Dynamic Translation for LLM conversations in Virtual Agent](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=disable-dynamic-translation-for-llm-va-conversations&family=washingtondc&ft:locale=en-US) : Dynamic Translation is enabled by default for ServiceNow AI Platform feature that is available with activation of any Now Assist applications, but you can disable it if you prefer not to have multi-language support for LLM conversations. | | Xanadu | **[Xanadu Patch 3](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=xanadu-patch-3&family=xanadu&ft:locale=en-US)** [Metadata log table for generative AI requests](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=reference-for-generative-ai-controller&family=xanadu&ft:locale=en-US) : Use the new metadata log table that includes information about the requesting conversation, the capability definition, provided feedback (if any), and error codes. [Translation for Now Assist](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=translation-for-now-assist&family=xanadu&ft:locale=en-US) : Support users who speak different languages with new language information in LLM request metadata, better controls for Dynamic Translation, and translated text logging. **[Xanadu Patch 7](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=xanadu-patch-7&family=xanadu&ft:locale=en-US)** Global Model selection for conversational skills : Enable Now Assist Admins to choose between GPT4.o and Now Assist LLM model for data routing at a global level. This ensures compliance with any regional restrictions and helpful for APAC users who may face limitations with US-based models, such as GPT-4.0. | [ ] ## Changes Between your current release family and Xanadu, some changes were made to existing Generative AI Controller features. {#dfrn3-generativeaicontroller-summary__entry__14} | Release | Release notes | |-|-| | Washington DC | No updates for this release. | | Xanadu | [Directions for generative AI updates for Generative AI Controller](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=reference-for-generative-ai-controller&family=xanadu&ft:locale=en-US) : The prompts, which are the instructions to the large language model (LLM), for all four capabilities (Generic Prompt, Generate Content, Summarization, and Sentiment Analysis), semantic filtering, and recursive summarization have been updated. | [ ] ## Removed Between your current release family and Xanadu, some Generative AI Controller features or functionality were removed. {#dfrn3-generativeaicontroller-summary__entry__20} | Release | Release notes | |-|-| | Washington DC | * The QnA capability has been removed and the action has been removed from Virtual Agent Designer and Workflow Studio. | | Xanadu | No updates for this release. | [ ] ## Deprecations Between your current release family and Xanadu, some Generative AI Controller features or functionality were deprecated. {#dfrn3-generativeaicontroller-summary__entry__26} | Release | Release notes | |-|-| | Washington DC | No updates for this release. | | Xanadu | No updates for this release. | [ ] ## Activation information Review information on how to activate Generative AI Controller. {#dfrn3-generativeaicontroller-summary__entry__32} | Release | Release notes | |-|-| | Washington DC | Generative AI Controller is a ServiceNow AI Platform feature that is available with activation of any Now Assist application.
