The project is still in a very premature phase and since I’m actively involved in the development gradually, more cmdlets for Speech, LUIS (Language Understanding Intelligent Service), custom Image and video search will be introduced.
I believe can be easily used in PowerShell bot frameworks like PoshBot for ChatOps, Azure Functions and from Azure CLI.
I’m excited how this project will evolve into future. On this note, please stay tuned for now… signing off…
