Creating and scaling your own custom copilots with Azure AI Studio: Hanchi Wang
Feb 6, 2025 · 24:21
Hanchi Wang, Software Engineer Lead at Azure AI, introduces Azure AI Studio and Promptflow for creating and scaling custom copilots, focusing on tracing, evaluation, and monitoring. He demonstrates a chatbot app that uses the Assistant API with a sales data insight tool (natural language to SQL) and a code interpreter. With Promptflow's trace decorator, developers capture inputs, outputs, and LLM interactions, viewable in a local UI and shareable via Azure AI Studio. For evaluation, he shows synthetic test data sets, content safety evaluators, and custom evaluators like execution time, error rate, and SQL similarity, comparing models such as GPT-4 Turbo, Mistral large, and Phi-3. In production, monitoring dashboards in Application Insights track model duration, token usage (prompt vs. completion), and failure rates, enabling engineers to optimize performance and cost.
