Extract insights from visual data on Azure (AI-3008)

This 1 day course focuses on building intelligent applications that can see, interpret, and reason over images and documents using different multimodal models and agent-based tools. Learners explore how visual and document inputs can be combined with language models to enable structured extraction, analysis, and decision-making workflows. The course emphasizes practical patterns for extracting information, orchestrating tools, and grounding model responses in visual data.
