Introduction

Microsoft is a popular platform for devices and provides an innovative learning platform from the beginner's level to advanced. Let's begin this new article with Microsoft Artificial Intelligence. Today, we have more power at our fingertips than the entire generation before us. The great thing about this AI is the possibility, adaptability, and capability. Just imagine a person without a hammer, a person without a paper; it's not the technology, but it's us behind all this automation. It's our voice, but AI is a microphone, we are the artist but AI is a paintbrush. We are always thinking about the future and dreams. Within this Mixed Reality world, AI is the best tool to empower us.

Microsoft AI Learn

We will explore Artificial Intelligence in the topics regarding AI Business School, AI School, AI Lab, and Experienced AI.

AI Business School

Business uses some crucial terms like strategy, responsibility, and confidence.
To create real business value and realize the true transformational power of AI in the enterprise, leaders need to have a deep understanding of all the strategic components.
Manufacturing, Retail, Healthcare, Financial Services, Government, and Education.

AI School

If you are completely new or a professional who dreams of reaching your goals, then AI school is the best place to find information, learning materials, and platforms to build an intellectual empire towards the future. There are numerous resources to learn AI, let's explore these ones by one.
Conversational AI: this is used to create delightful bot interactions in your apps and other channels. Either choosing an industrial bot or intelligent bot, we can build a chatbot according to our needs and purposes with the available resources and requirements. I personally like to go with an intelligent bot. Let's create a quick and simple bot using Microsoft Azure.

Create a Bot resource in Microsoft Azure

Microsoft Azure has a Bot Service that is connected with the building and hosting bots. It fetches the Microsoft Bot Framework for the basic functions and Azure Web Apps to host these bots. Here, we will see how to host our bot using Azure Web App and by using Direct Line Channel to integrate the Web Chat with the bot service.
