31 August Online

About this event

Foundry Labs is where developers can explore the latest AI innovations emerging from Microsoft Research and Microsoft AI.

In this episode, we'll look at how experimental models and research projects make their way from breakthrough ideas to real-world impact.

We'll then take a closer look at one of these experiments, Fara1.5 - a family of small but powerful computer-use models designed for browser automation that can navigate websites, fill forms, and complete multi-step tasks, while setting new state-of-the-art performance among models in its class

Learn how to evaluate models, compare performance across providers and model families, and dynamically route requests to the model best suited for each task.

Through discussions and demos, we'll show how model router helps agents improve quality, efficiency, and cost by treating model selection as an ongoing optimization process rather than a one-time decision.
