Note that unless you separately opt-in to the Use Data for Training and Fine-Tuning option, Splunk will not use your AI Service Data for Training and Fine-Tuning, which is defined as follows:

Training and Fine-Tuning means teaching or conditioning AI Models to learn patterns and perform specific tasks by supplying the AI Models with datasets and optimizing their relevant parameters. It includes adapting pre-trained AI Models to improve performance through methods such as adjusting relevant weights.

The Personalization feature uses your data to provide better results from Splunk AI Assistant for SPL. Only users with administrator privileges can opt-in or opt-out of this feature. You can opt-in or out at any time. When Personalization is turned off or on, that setting applies at the app level, across all users, and not at the individual user level.

If you want to opt-in or out of this feature, navigate to the Settings tab of the assistant. Select or de-select the Personalize results option, as shown in the following image:

Users without administrator privileges see the Personalization information on the Settings tab, and the setting chosen, but cannot change this setting.

If you opt-in for Personalization, collected data is stored in a Splunk database. If you opt-out of this personalization at a later date, a cleanup job runs weekly which deletes any collected data.
