In this session, discover the benefits of leveraging Azure OpenAI Assistants over custom-built solutions for developing semi-autonomous agents. Learn how these assistants can utilize tool-calling, file-search, and code-writing out of the box, allowing you to concentrate on what's truly important. You'll be guided through both prototyping with Azure AI Foundry in your browser and taking a code-first approach using Python or C#.

This talk is designed for software developers and architects. Get ready to leave the session with the knowledge to create your own agentic applications with Azure OpenAI Assistants, whether you prefer working in a browser or directly in code.
