Mastering AI Prompt Engineering for a Smarter Workflow en nl
Hello everyone, my name is Paul, and I’m a software engineer passionate about the power of AI. In this presentation, you’ll discover how to get started with ChatGPT and Microsoft Copilot, and why prompt engineering is becoming an essential skill for the future.
We’ll explore the knowledge embedded in these language models and show you how to craft effective prompts that take your work to the next level. Based on the RACE principle we explore the capabilities for a dog trim salon Pawsome. We dive in promptengineering from advertisements to social media content, to see how we get the maximized results from these tools.
Through practical examples, you’ll learn how these tools can support and optimize your daily tasks.
At the end of the session, you’ll receive a handy Quick Reference Card (QRC) to quickly revisit everything you’ve learned. Join us and discover the future of AI in your workflow!

Escape the Cloud: Run AI Models Locally, Build Securely en
Cloud-based AI APIs are powerful, but what about the network latency, API keys, and privacy concerns? What if you could bypass all that and run AI models directly on your local machine to supercharge your personal workflow and to build and test entire AI-powered features, completely offline?
Get ready to take control. This energetic, 20-minute session is your practical playbook for the full local AI stack. You'll see how to expose your local model as a private, high-performance API. This is the key to creating a powerful local development loop for building and testing robust application features, free from rate limits and data privacy risks. We’ll show how this local-first architecture lets you seamlessly switch models and tools, so you can build and iterate on secure features at lightning speed.

Cloud cost vs. Local control: The Foundry vs. Foundry Local showdown en
The developer's first instinct for AI is the cloud: it offers scalability and security. But what happens when you need rapid prototyping, offline development, enhanced data privacy, or the flexibility to experiment with the vast ecosystem of open-source models? This is where running AI workloads locally provides an undeniable advantage.
This session cuts through the noise, providing a deep, technical comparison of the practical trade-offs between the cloud-based Foundry and Foundry Local. We will explore the critical differences in cost, privacy, and performance, and directly contrast the curated model catalog with open-source alternatives. Through live demonstrations of switching environments and utilizing AI agents, you will see exactly how to structure your applications. This equips you with a straightforward, robust architectural strategy for moving seamlessly between cloud and local execution, empowering you to make better-informed, high-stakes decisions for your Azure AI projects.
