Data & AI Leadership Day Talk:
Implement Your First Gen AI Use Case With The Azure-OpenAI Service



Generative AI has made a considerable impression over the past months, especially with the highly accessible ChatGPT tool. However Unit8 sees companies struggling to understand how the technology behind ChatGPT can be applied in their business specifics. Unit8 will show you how in this session. We’ll break down ChatGPT so you understand Gen AI fundamentals, present and demo 3 low-hanging Azure-OpenAI use cases and provide a practical roadmap for you to get started.
