Abstract
The rapid advancement of generative AI has brought forth incredible opportunities to transform industries and solve complex problems. However, ensuring the responsible development and deployment of these technologies is crucial to harness their potential effectively. In this talk, I will delve into Microsoft's journey of creating and utilizing generative AI applications, such as GitHub Copilot and Bing Chat, while highlighting the responsible AI foundation in Azure AI that powers them.
This responsible AI foundation in Azure AI not only drives our own applications but also equips others with the necessary tools and resources to build ethical AI solutions. I will showcase examples of how developers can leverage this foundation to create responsible AI systems.
Join us for an engaging conversation on the importance of responsible AI and how we can work together to create a future where AI benefits everyone.
