Module 1: AI Overview
In this module, you'll learn about the kinds of solutions AI can make possible and considerations for responsible AI practices.
Machine learning is the basis for most modern artificial intelligence solutions and is an important foundation for understanding AI.
In this module, you will learn the fundamentals of how Azure AI services can be used to build applications, making it easier to leverage AI and machine learning in practical environments.
Module 2: Computer Vision
In this chapter, we dive into the basics of Computer Vision, an area of AI that enables machines to interpret and understand visual information from the world.
Face detection and analysis are important capabilities for artificial intelligence (AI) solutions. Azure AI Face service makes it easy integrate these capabilities into your applications.
Optical character recognition (OCR) enables artificial intelligence (AI) systems to read text in images, enabling applications to extract information from photographs, scanned documents, and other sources of digitized text.
Module 3: Natural Language Processing (NLP)
Explore Azure AI Language's natural language processing (NLP) features, which include sentiment analysis, key phrase extraction, named entity recognition, and language detection.
Create a custom question answering knowledge base with Azure AI Language.
In this module, we introduce you to conversational language understanding, and show how to create applications that understand language with Azure AI Language.
Learn how to recognize and synthesize speech by using Azure AI Speech.
Automated translation capabilities in an AI solution enable closer collaboration by removing language barriers.
Module 4: Document Intelligence and Knowledge Mining
Document processing is a common task in many business scenarios. Organizations can use Azure AI Document Intelligence to automate data extraction across document types, such as receipts, invoices, and more.
Use Azure AI Search to make your data searchable.
Module 5: Generative AI
In this module, you explore the way in which language models enable AI applications and services to generate original content based on natural language input. You also learn how generative AI enables the creation of agents that can assist humans in creative tasks.
Microsoft Azure offers multiple services that enable developers to build amazing AI-powered solutions. Proper planning and preparation involves identifying the services you'll use and creating an optimal working environment for your development team.
Generative AI enables amazing creative solutions, but must be implemented responsibly to minimize the risk of harmful content generation.
AI agents represent the next generation of intelligent applications. Learn how they can be developed and used on Microsoft Azure.
