Semantic Kernel is an open-source SDK backed by Microsoft that seamlessly integrates Large Language Models such as OpenAI and
Azure OpenAI with programming languages like C#. It allows users to use natural language input to seamlessly invoke and
interact with your custom code.
During this session, we will begin by exploring the Chat Completion API offered by Azure OpenAI. Following that,
we'll delve into the advantages of utilizing the Semantic Kernel for the development of AI-powered applications.
