Build your own Flight Tracker with Semantic Kernel
Imagine a world where you can create your own AI copilot that understands and responds to your needs.
A world where you can easily combine AI services with conventional programming languages to build powerful AI-first apps. This is the world of Semantic Kernel, and it is closer than you think.
In this session, you will learn how to use Semantic Kernel, an open-source SDK, to build your own flight tracker. Semantic Kernel lets you easily combine AI services like OpenAI, Azure OpenAI, and Hugging Face with programming languages like C#, allowing you to create AI-first apps that combine the best of both worlds.
We will discuss how Semantic Kernel can be used to orchestrate the business flows of the flight tracking and natural language capabilities.
We'll explore some advanced concepts such as Functions (Semantic and Native), Planners, and how to build a plugin from scratch that you'd be able to test with ChatGPT.
All in all, it's going to be a fun experience for developers to learn how to use Semantic Kernel to orchestrate AI plugins from both OpenAI and Microsoft Azure OpenAI on top of nearly any model, and how you can use these components individually or together to build powerful AI-first apps.
