Azure AI Innovations at Microsoft
summary
Microsoft shows Azure AI moving research into product: a March 2020 image‑caption model becomes a Cognitive Service API in three to four months; the stack centers on Azure Machine Learning plus Cognitive Services and Azure OpenAI (GPT‑3, Dolly 2). Demo builds a rock‑paper‑scissors app using ResNet-18, PyTorch Lightning, mlflow logs, a GitHub Actions job that registers a model and creates an endpoint, then an Azure Static Web App + Function calling the endpoint — training hits validation accuracy 1 and the web app returns correct predictions. Responsible AI tools include an error‑analysis and fairness dashboard.
