Building Applications with AI Agents — Michael Albada, Microsoft
AI Engineer· 2025-07-24 15:00
[Music] It's a pleasure to be with you today. My name is Michael Alba and I'm a principal applied scientist at Microsoft and today I'm going to be presenting on building applications with AI agents. So just as a brief bio, I've been at Microsoft for about two years.So why I've been one of the key contributors to security copilot and the recently announced security copilot agents specifically working in the cyber security division. Before that I spent four years working on machine learning at Uber lots of bi ...
