ai agents

About this tag
The ai agents tag on WindowsForum covers enterprise deployment of autonomous AI agents, with a focus on Microsoft's ecosystem including Azure, Microsoft 365, and Copilot. Discussions center on governance, trust, and control, drawing from sources like the 2026 Agent Confidence Index, Microsoft Scout, and Claude on Azure with NVIDIA GB300 Blackwell Ultra GPUs. Recurring themes include structured data work as a starting point for agents, the importance of observability and audit trails, and the shift from AI as a chat tool to delegated action in business workflows. Topics also cover computer use in Gemini 3.5 Flash and real-world savings from Copilot agents at SOCAR Türkiye.
