Description

Generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) is now easier to access with user-friendly platforms like Azure AI Foundry. Discover how to create generative AI apps that use language models to benefit users.

Azure AI Foundry provides access to pre-trained generative AI models, such as OpenAI's GPT, DALL-E, and others, reducing the time and effort required to build solutions from scratch. Users can leverage no-code/low-code tools to quickly prototype and deploy AI applications.

In this hands-on lab, you will learn how to use the Azure AI services in Azure portal and Azure AI Foundry Portal. You will also gain experience with AI models through chat playgrounds.
