❌ Tools We Don't Recommend

Please refrain from using the following generative A.I. tools due to privacy and/or security concerns. The list below is a non-exhaustive list. If you have questions about whether a tool is safe to use or not, submit a tech ticket by emailing support-ticket@riverdale.edu.
