Power Platform | #CommunityRocks

This week, I engaged in community activities, such as attending Microsoft’s AI Tour in Berlin and conducting a Power Hour at Power Platform 24, where I discussed the risk assessment of Copilots. During my interaction with the developer community in Berlin, one question was particularly prominent: Which tool should be used for developing applications powered by generative AI in this era of AI? I had already offered some insights on this topic in my previous post.

Undoubtedly, it is crucial to share more information about the Microsoft Technology stack available and how developers can tailor it to meet their unique requirements. Equally important is ensuring that everyone is informed about the Responsible AI principles Microsoft implements in their Copilot experiences. Take for example the Copilot experiences that can be found in Power Platform:

I’ve been utilizing the above visual as an example during my risk assessment presentation at Power Platform 24, emphasizing that exploring and assessing current and future capabilities is crucial for fostering a robust, secure, and adaptable ecosystem when employing a Copilot as a companion. Developers should be empowered to use the tool to create next-generation, AI-enhanced use cases to ensure their company’s success with AI tools. What are the opportunities?

The four buckets of AI transformation opportunities

Opportunities can be categorized into four groups: employee-centric, customer-focused, next-generation business processes, and innovation acceleration. A use case that might come up for you can be in one or multiple of these categories. The importance is to innovate confidently with a responsible AI platform. That means:

  • Safeguard your organization, employees, and data with a cloud that runs on trust.
  • Build on security and privacy-compliant infrastructure that is purpose-built for AI at scale.
  • Grow with a commitment of putting responsible AI into action with principles, practices, and tools.

With that in mind, I am quite confident that through keynotes, such as those by Seth Juarez, we will broaden our understanding of responsible AI principles and collaboratively create innovations that offer more than just short-term business value.

If you´re interested in extending your knowledge, check out my slides I shared during my Power 24 session. I am looking forward to meet with yours in one of the next community events. It´s only a couple of weeks left, until Color Cloud Hamburg is going to kick off.

Check out the program, get your tickets and don´t miss the chance to become part of the AI hackathon. A little bird shared with me there´re still some tickets available for the workshops. Consider joining my good friend Chris Huntingford and me for a unique lightning talk on Copilot for Power Platform. If you’re familiar with the „Will it Blend?“ series on YouTube, you might have an inkling of what to expect.

Until then,…
