Microsoft’s Semantic Kernel is a powerful AI SDK that simplifies the process of adding natural language capabilities to apps. In this episode of โOpen at Microsoft,โ experts discuss how this groundbreaking concept has revolutionized NLP and is now powering products like Microsoft 365 Copilot and Bing.

What is Semantic Kernel?
Semantic Kernel is an AI SDK that enables developers to add natural language processing capabilities to their applications. It allows developers to create and execute tasks using natural language prompting across multiple languages and platforms. Semantic Kernel is powered by Microsoft’s own Copilot stack, which is used to make Microsoft’s products intelligent.
How Does Semantic Kernel Work?
Semantic Kernel works by using natural language prompting to create and execute tasks. It uses a set of pre-defined tasks, such as โcreate a document,โ โfind a contact,โ or โset a reminder.โ These tasks are then executed using natural language processing, which allows the user to interact with the application using natural language.
What are the Benefits of Semantic Kernel?
The benefits of Semantic Kernel are numerous. It allows developers to quickly add natural language processing capabilities to their applications, without having to write any code. It also enables users to interact with applications using natural language, making it easier to use and understand. Finally, Semantic Kernel is powered by Microsoft’s own Copilot stack, which is used to make Microsoft’s products intelligent.
