Showing results for May 2025 | Semantic Kernel

This is Part 2 of our series on integrating Microsoft.Extensions.AI with Semantic Kernel. In Part 1, we explored the relationship between these technologies and how they complement each other. Now, let's dive into practical examples showing how to use Microsoft.Extensions.AI abstractions with Semantic Kernel in non-agent scenarios. Getting Start...

The field of AI is rapidly evolving, and the need for more sophisticated, collaborative, and flexible agent-based systems is growing. With this in mind, Semantic Kernel introduces a new multi-agent orchestration framework that enables developers to build, manage, and scale complex agent workflows with ease. This post explores the new orchestration ...

This is the start of a series highlighting the integration between Microsoft Semantic Kernel and Microsoft.Extensions.AI. Future parts will provide detailed examples of using Semantic Kernel with Microsoft.Extensions.AI abstractions.  The most common questions are:  This blog post will address these questions and offer guidance ...

As Semantic Kernel shifts its foundational abstractions to Microsoft.Extensions.AI, we are obsoleting and moving away from our experimental embeddings interfaces to the new standardized abstractions that provide a more consistent and powerful way to work with AI services across the .NET ecosystem. The Evolution of Embedding Generation in Seman...

We’re excited to announce the release of Microsoft.Extensions.VectorData.Abstractions, a foundational library providing exchange types and abstractions for vector stores when working with vector data in AI-powered applications. This release is the result of a close collaboration between the Semantic Kernel and .NET teams, combining expertise in AI ...

Semantic Kernel: Package Previews, Graduations & Deprecations We are excited to share a summary of recent updates and continuous clean-up efforts across the Semantic Kernel .NET codebase. These changes focus on improving maintainability, aligning with the latest APIs, and ensuring a consistent experience for users. Below you’ll find details on...

We’re excited to announce the release candidate of the Semantic Kernel for Java Agents API! This marks a major step forward in bringing the power of intelligent agents to Java developers, enabling them to build rich, contextual, and interactive AI experiences using the Semantic Kernel framework. What Are Agents in Semantic Kernel? Agents are inte...

Today we're excited to welcome Jarre Nejatyab as a guest blog to highlight a technical deep dive on orchestrating AI Agents with Semantic Kernel Plugins. In the rapidly evolving world of Large Language Models (LLMs), orchestrating specialized AI agents has become crucial for building sophisticated cognitive architectures capable of complex reasoni...
