A conversational agent named Lacuna is helping product teams uncover hidden assumptions embedded in design decisions. Built with Copilot Studio and powered by Azure AI Foundry, Lacuna analyzes product documents to identify speculative beliefs and assess their risk using design analysis lenses: impact, confidence, and reversibility. By surfacing cognitive biases and prompting reflection, Lacuna encourages teams to validate assumptions through lightweight evidence-gathering methods. This experiment in human-AI collaboration explores how agents can foster epistemic humility and transform static documents into dynamic conversations.The Future of AI: Creating a Web Application with Vibe Coding
Discover how vibe coding with GPT-5 in Azure AI Foundry transforms web development. This post walks through building a Translator API-powered web app using natural language instructions in Visual Studio Code. Learn how adaptive translation, tone and gender customization, and Copilot agent collaboration redefine the developer experience.The Future of AI: Vibe Code with Adaptive Custom Translation
This blog explores how vibe coding—a conversational, flow-based development approach—was used to build the AdaptCT playground in Azure AI Foundry. It walks through setting up a productive coding environment with GitHub Copilot in Visual Studio Code, configuring the Copilot agent, and building a translation playground using Adaptive Custom Translation (AdaptCT). The post includes real-world code examples, architectural insights, and advanced UI patterns. It also highlights how AdaptCT fine-tunes LLM outputs using domain-specific reference sentence pairs, enabling more accurate and context-aware translations. The blog concludes with best practices for vibe coding teams and a forward-looking view of AI-augmented development paradigms.Announcing a new Azure AI Translator API (Public Preview)
Microsoft has launched the Azure AI Translator API (Public Preview), offering flexible translation options using either neural machine translation (NMT) or generative AI models like GPT-4o. The API supports tone, gender, and adaptive custom translation, allowing enterprises to tailor output for real-time or human-reviewed workflows. Customers can mix models in a single request and authenticate via resource key or Entra ID. LLM features require deployment in Azure AI Foundry. Pricing is based on characters (NMT) or tokens (LLMs).
