How to Choose the Right Models for Your Apps | Azure AI

Microsoft Mechanics Podcast

With more than 1700 models to choose from on Azure, selecting the right one is key to enabling the right capabilities, at the right price point, and with the right protections in place. That's where the Azure AI model catalog and model benchmarks can help.

With Azure AI, you can seamlessly integrate powerful GenAI models into your app development process, making your applications smarter, more efficient, and highly scalable. Access a vast selection of AI models, from sophisticated large language models to efficient small models that can run offline.

Matt McSpirit, Microsoft Azure expert, shows how to compare and select the right AI model for your specific needs. Azure AI's model benchmarks evaluate models on accuracy, coherence, groundedness, fluency, relevance, and similarity. Experiment with different models in Azure AI Studio or your preferred coding environment, and optimize costs with serverless pricing options.
