Agenda:

⏰ 10:00 AM to 11:00 AM IST
Working with Models: Confident model selection and integration with Microsoft Foundry
Level: (300) Advanced

Discover how to quickly choose, integrate, and validate AI models inside Microsoft Foundry. Learn techniques for navigating thousands of model options, benchmarking performance, and streamlining your workflow with deep IDE support. Build faster, ship smarter, and stay on top of the evolving AI landscape.

⏰ 11:00 AM to 01:00 PM IST
Hands on Lab:
Working with Models: Get Started with Models in Microsoft Foundry to Build AI Apps
Level: (300) Advanced

In this hands-on lab, you will build a production-ready AI application using Microsoft Foundry, with no fine-tuning or deep machine learning expertise required. You will discover and select models, provision a Foundry project, and connect to a hosted model using the OpenAI SDK. You’ll implement a comment moderation workflow, compare model outputs, and package the solution as a hosted agent using Python, ready for real-world integration.

Developer Tools & Frameworks: Your agent, anywhere: MultiClient, MultiDevice with GitHub Copilot SDK

Level: (300) Advanced
Agents are powerful on your machine, but what happens when you need them everywhere else? In this session, we'll show how GitHub Copilot SDK lets you build an agent, embed it in an app, and take it with you across devices and into the cloud. You'll see how to go from a local agent to one you can access on your phone, move between machines, and run across multiple clients. If you've been working with agents locally and wondering what the next step looks like, this is it.

⏰ 03:00 PM to 04:00 PM IST
Responsible AI: Observability for AI agents on any framework
Level: (300) Advanced

Nondeterministic, multi-agent systems break traditional monitoring. As agents move into production, developers need observability built into the workflow, not bolted on after failures. This session explores what modern observability looks like for AI agents: how tracing and evaluation must work across any framework, why the inner loop deserves the same rigor as the outer, how context-specific evals evolve with your agent, and how always-on signals tie behavior to business outcomes.
