Announced March 6, 2023, Azure OpenAI Service will be integrated into Microsoft AI Builder, and is currently in preview. Azure OpenAI Service enables users to use a new low-code generative AI model and templates within Microsoft Power Automate and Microsoft Power Apps.
AI Builder is integrated in Microsoft Power Platform and Dynamics 365 so makers can use AI to build more intelligent apps and workflows by pre-built or custom AI models.
Azure OpenAI Service for Microsoft AI Builder: What is it?
The Azure OpenAI Service generative text capability is a powerful feature in AI Builder. It allows you to create custom AI capabilities quickly and easily for natural language processing (NLP). This preview capability enables you to build scenarios such as summarization, information extraction, autogenerate response, classification, translation, and more. It also allows you to use large language models to generate new text, which can be used for a variety of purposes.
Azure OpenAI Service is built on Generative Pre-trained Transformer (GPT) technology. These large language models have been trained on a massive amount of text data, which enables them to generate text that is similar to human-written text. This text can be used for a variety of tasks.
Azure OpenAI Service for Microsoft AI Builder: Application Examples
Some examples of how to use the new model in your app or flow include:
- Summarizing weekly reports: A researcher can utilize the model to summarize text from weekly reports and send it to their email inbox, all with Power Automate. This helps inform their analysis and identify themes and trends rapidly, allowing for faster and more efficient decision-making.
- Generating content ideas for marketing teams: A marketing manager can create targeted content ideas that can be used for emails or social media posts by entering specific keywords or topics – all within their marketing team’s app. The generated text is an excellent starting point for content creation, and can be customized and optimized to meet your specific needs.
- Handling customer queries: Agents can respond quickly and efficiently to complaints or feedback by building a flow within Power Automate to summarize, classify, and route customer queries. This reduces response times and increases customer satisfaction, ultimately improving the overall customer experience.
Azure OpenAI Service for Microsoft AI Builder: Availability
Currently in preview, Azure OpenAI Service for Microsoft AI Builder is in the process of rolling out and may not be available in your region yet.
Conclusion
In summary, Microsoft has announced the integration of Azure OpenAI Service into its AI Builder, which is currently in preview. The integration will enable users to leverage a low-code generative AI model and templates for natural language processing in Microsoft Power Automate and Microsoft Power Apps. Azure OpenAI Service is based on Generative Pre-trained Transformer technology and can be used to perform various tasks such as summarization, information extraction, autogenerate response, classification, and translation. Overall, this integration will significantly improve the efficiency and effectiveness of natural language processing tasks, benefiting businesses and organizations that use it.
