Join Daniel Brown live from the remote Opal fields of Coober Pedy, Australia, where Microsoft AI meets the Outback! This session will showcase how Azure AI - including Custom Vision, GPT models, and edge solutions - is transforming fieldwork in one of the world’s most extreme environments.

AI doesn't just belong in labs and data centres - it thrives where decisions are made. In this session, we'll take you into the heart of the Australian Outback, demonstrating how Microsoft AI-powered vision models operate in real-time, even in harsh conditions.

What’s New in This Session?
🔹 Live AI Demo in the Opal Fields – Watch as OpalAI, trained with Azure Custom Vision, identifies opal in real-time.
🔹 GPT Enhancements - Learn how Azure OpenAI models are advancing geological insights and interpreting data from the field.
🔹 AI at the Edge - Discover how AI models run efficiently in low-connectivity environments, optimizing detection and operations in the real world.
🔹 Challenges & Breakthroughs - Explore how AI adapts to dust, lighting, extreme temperatures, and field constraints, overcoming challenges in the harshest conditions.

Why Attend?
See how Azure AI bridges the gap between cutting-edge cloud technology and real-world problem-solving. Watch AI in action - no simulations, no lab tests - just live, real-time AI working in the Australian Outback.

This session will highlight how Microsoft AI empowers exploration and fieldwork, optimizing processes and driving efficiency, even in the toughest environments.
