My favorite highlights from Ignite 2023 are:
- Microsoft Copilot Studio - giving users the ability to integrate data and create workflows that align to business need.
- Microsoft Azure AI Search - New and improved vector search and semantic ranking support for generative AI workloads and use cases.
- Microsoft SharePoint Premium - Content Intelligence services that can extract data from documents using AI trained models (formerly Microsoft Syntex).
- Azure Machine Learning Prompt Flow - Enables developers to design, construct, evaluate and deploy LLM workflows, connecting to a variety of foundation models, vector databases, prompts and Python tools through both visualized graphs and code-first experiences in CLI, SDK and Visual Studio Code extension.
- Azure AI Models as a Service and Llama support - allowing fine tuning and inclusion of additional models in the Microsoft ecosystem beyond GPT.
