Microsoft has announced a range of new AI-based solutions and tools at its Ignite 2023 event, with a focus on cloud computing, artificial intelligence, and developer tools. Of particular note is the launch of Azure AI Studio, a toolkit that provides many of the technologies necessary for building AI-based solutions into an integrated platform. Microsoft has also introduced a guided system that walks developers through the steps of model creation from beginning to end, and a comprehensive repository to store, organize, and manage their machine learning models. These tools help provide an improved AI development lifecycle.
