Session Abstract

Did you know that you can combine various AI services such as Open AI, Azure Open AI and Hugging Face in your own custom application? In this session you will learn how you can build your own CoPilot experience using the Semantic Kernel which is released as an open source project. I will demonstrate how you can use skills, memories, connectors and plugins in order to enhance the experience for your users. This session is a developer focused session meaning that you do not need to have any AI knowledge in order to benefit from the examples demonstrated in the session.
