Build Next-Gen AI Apps with .NET and Azure
summary
Claims that .NET plus Azure and GitHub Models let developers go from months to weeks (author reports a multi‑month project produced in a couple weeks using GitHub Copilot), and that AI adoption velocity is extreme (ChatGPT hit 100M users in five days versus Netflix’s 1,277). Demonstrates concrete tooling: AI templates (chat web app + MCP server), Aspire orchestration to launch Docker Quadrant + web app, Quadrant for embeddings from three PDFs, GitHub Models → Azure/OpenAI swap, and model evaluation for TDD-style checks — the demo runs end-to-end.
