I think #bots are a great way to get your organization started with #AI. They solve important business problems and #Microsoft provides great tools to get started with their #BotFramework. Read more at https://t.co/Ny02kqebhE

I'm excited to launch The Neuron's podcast! And give away $500 to a lucky winner :)

After shipping 300+ newsletters to 400K+ readers, we're going deeper with a pod.

TLDR: It’s still about AI, but we’ll dive deeper and cover more than we normally do in the newsletter: extra thoughts, info, tips, and juicy insider secrets (ooh!).

Plus, we're gonna keep it tight. 20 minutes max. No 2-hour tirades.

In today's episode:

- Meta's Llama 3 (record breaks!)
- Microsoft's VASA-1 (deepfakes!)
- Microsoft's Crescendo (jailbreaks!)

Link is in my bio to listen - and go check out how you can win $500 in the replies!

Building an intelligent #bot that is natural & simple to use might sound like no easy feat - but with the help of #AzureBotFramework, possibilities are seemingly endless. Join @alathrop on Feb 13th @ 2pm EST for a #webinar on #ChatBots with #Azure: https://t.co/1NokZxXsJT

@BuckWoodyMSFT @ctesta_oneill thx - I'm familiar with the great Learn AI Bootcamp materials. What I am looking for are good MS AI sales enablement and presales materials (ie PPT) as @BlueGraniteInc ramps up its AI solution area. The slides Buck used in this webinar would be a great start: is a PDF available

[Andy Lathrop @alathrop]

@BuckWoodyMSFT @ctesta_oneill Any word on making the materials available? If not, is there someone at Microsoft I can contact?

[Andy Lathrop @alathrop]

@BuckWoodyMSFT the burning means it's working

[Andy Lathrop @alathrop]

Who else is excited about @databricks on @Azure? This is a great summary from @datamic on the @BlueGraniteInc team. https://t.co/MjyDT9PTCQ https://t.co/FUfzO9ihyQ

[Andy Lathrop @alathrop]

@BuckWoodyMSFT @ctesta_oneill Really enjoyed the webinar! Is a PDF version of the slides available?

[U.S. Military Academy at West Point @WestPoint_USMA]

One of USMA's priorities is to develop leaders of character who are committed to the values of Duty, Honor & Country. Peter Wang's actions on February 14 are an example of those principles & the academy honors his dream of being a West Point cadet with a 2025 letter of acceptance
