In this lab, you'll get hands-on with the AI Toolkit (AITK) and Microsoft Foundry in VS Code to explore and compare the latest multimodal and reasoning models from the Model Catalog. Learn how to augment models for a real-world business scenario, using prompt and context engineering. Prototype an agent using the AITK Agent Builder, and equip the agent with the right tools via the Model context Protocol (MCP).
Please RSVP and arrive at least 5 minutes before the start time, at which point remaining spaces are open to standby attendees.
