Earlier today, at Microsoft Ignite 2017, where we are in conversations about digital transformation with over 25,000 customers and partners, Joseph Sirosh, Corporate Vice President for Cloud Artificial Intelligence, shared the latest updates around the Microsoft AI development platform.

These announcements, which demonstrate our mission to bring AI to every developer and every organization on the planet, and to help businesses augment human ingenuity in unique and differentiated ways, include the following:

  • The next generation of Azure Machine Learning, including the Azure ML Workbench, a cross-platform client for AI-powered data wrangling and experiment management; the Azure ML Experimentation Service, to help data scientists increase their rate of experimentation with big data and GPUs; and the Azure ML Model Management Service, to host, version, manage and monitor ML models.
  • Visual Studio Code Tools for AI.
  • Microsoft Cognitive Services.
  • AI business solutions for enterprises.
