Arizona AI Assistant transition

Supplemental reference · Browse supplements · Current report

AI Verde → Arizona AI Assistant. Wolfgang Jentner at the Office of Responsible AI (ORAI) is the source of this planned transition and $200/month of AWS Bedrock credit, relayed by Greg Chism. Transition date, who receives the credit, eligibility, renewal and overage controls need confirmation. This is an October 19, 2026 working-group update, not a verified entitlement for every faculty member or student.

Public university news describes Arizona AI Assistant as a fall pilot and AI Verde separately. The new portal returned HTTP 200; we have not tested a signed-in account or campus API. Contact Wolfgang Jentner at ORAI for AI Verde, Arizona AI Assistant and Bedrock for current enrollment, migration and credit terms.

For example, at the listed campus Luna rate, 10,000 input + 1,000 output tokens = $0.00165 before any other charges. This is illustrative arithmetic, not an observed bill or promised credit balance. Credit provides model inference, not a reserved GPU, training cluster or guaranteed class concurrency.

Before relying on the replacement

  • Confirm migration timing, existing team/workspace exports, API compatibility and the correct API base URL.
  • Confirm whether $200/month is per person, team or another allocation; determine reset, expiry and overage behavior.
  • Review allowed data, retention, model availability and throughput under campus terms.
  • Test one public/synthetic workflow and a classroom rehearsal before required use.

The resource request tool currently uses the separate direct OpenAI Luna pilot. Its $1 monthly application allowance does not draw from campus Bedrock credit. Campus integration needs a campus-issued credential and confirmed API terms.
