Microsoft is significantly expanding its AI capabilities to the edge, empowering developers with tools to create innovative AI agents. This strategic move, unveiled at Build 2025, focuses on enabling smarter and faster experiences across various devices. Unlike previous strategies centered on single-use AI assistants, Microsoft is now emphasizing dynamic agents that seamlessly integrate with third-party systems through the Model Context Protocol (MCP). This shift aims to create broader, integrated ecosystems where agents can operate across diverse use cases and integrate with any digital infrastructure.
Microsoft is empowering developers by offering the OpenAI Responses API, which allows the combination of MCP servers, code interpreters, reasoning, web search, and RAG within a single API call. This capability enables the development of next-generation AI agents. Among the announcements at Build 2025 were a platform to build on-device agents, the ability to bring AI to web apps on the Edge browser, and developer capabilities to deploy bots directly on Windows. The company hopes the developments will lead to broader use of AI technologies and a significant increase in the number of daily active users.
Microsoft is already demonstrating the impact of its agentic AI platform, Azure AI Foundry, in healthcare, including streamlining cancer care planning. In addition to their AI initiatives, Microsoft has introduced a new AI-powered orchestration system that streamlines the complex process of cancer care planning. This orchestration system, available through the Azure AI Foundry Agent Catalog, brings together specialized AI agents to assist clinicians with the analysis of multimodal medical data, from imaging and genomics to clinical notes and pathology. Early adopters include Stanford Health Care, Johns Hopkins, Providence Genomics, and UW Health.
