it has been over a year since OpenAI released ChatGPT to the world. In those 12 months, a lot has happened, and it would take us a lot more than an hour to cover it all... OpenAI and Microsoft have a strong partnership where Microsoft can leverage the OpenAI models to offer them in a lot of services and products. One of those is the Azure OpenAI service, which gives you the means to easily add generative AI to your solutions. Microsoft has been building copilots on top (and in) a lot of products and services that you know and use today.

In this session, I'm going to cover how you can leverage the same framework that Microsoft is using (Semantic Kernel) to build your own copilots AND how you can start extending your Copilots (and the ones of Microsoft) with publicly available and your own plugins. I truly believe that this is going to change how we build software and how end users are going to interact with it!
