In this moment, excerpted from the Keynote session “How AI Agents are Defining the Future,” Ray Smith, VP, AI Agents, Microsoft, highlights the three key layers of a transformation stack.

Key Takeaways

  • Interface layer: The interface layer is at the top. “It’s like your gateway,” Smith notes. “It’s your UI for AI.” That is M365 Copilot as your assistant at work, grounded on your information and protecting your knowledge.
  • App layer: Next is the app-building, or agent-building, layer. It’s predominantly low-code, but there are more code creation services and capabilities on the rise with agent tools. This layer is comprised of Microsoft Copilot.
  • Platform layer: The final layer is Azure AI Foundry, which involves all the services and fine-tuning. There are over 1,800 models that users can select from that can help with building across frameworks.
