Generative AI

In this module you're going to learn about generative AI and how you can use Azure AI Foundry to build AI-powered applications in the cloud. We'll start with an overview of what generative AI actually is: how large language models work, what makes them different from traditional AI, and why they've become so useful for creating text, code, images, and more.

I'll show you how to access the Azure OpenAI Service to gain access to powerful models through REST APIs and SDKs. Then we'll explore the Model Catalog where you can discover hundreds of models from providers like Azure OpenAI, Mistral, Meta, Cohere, and others. You'll learn how to deploy and test these models in your own projects, and how to configure them with settings like temperature and max tokens to control their behavior.

We'll wrap up with prompt examples that show you how to get the best results from these models, and a quick recap of everything we've covered.
