TypeChat, DeepSpeed, Entra & Purview Updates and the Joys of Not Preparing | EP22
Show Notes
Welcome back to Cloudy with a Chance of Insights, the bi-weekly podcast where three Microsoft Cloud architects (Richard, David, and Cyrus) attempt to make sense of the ever-expanding universe of Azure, M365, D365, and all things cloud—usually with minimal preparation and maximum digression.
This week, Richard kicks things off with a personal update, before launching into a philosophical ramble about why he’s doing a podcast at all—spoiler: it’s not for the likes, but if you fancy pressing that button, it does help others find us though :-)
David then dives into Microsoft’s TypeChat (think: making AI output less of a fever dream and more of a structured answer), DeepSpeed (the unsung hero keeping Copilot’s LLMs from collapsing under their own weight), and Mark It Down (finally, a tool to turn your document chaos into Markdown sanity).
Cyrus brings his usual blend of technical depth and existential musings, covering, the big shift: Microsoft Entra as the new source of authority for identity, Passwordless guidance, Intune’s new security baselines, Purview Insider Risk’s new network-based detection for cloud apps and GenAI
Along the way, we reminisce about Commodore 64s, DOS pranks, and the joys of wiring up PC speakers (or not), the state of search engines, the rise of GenAI, and why none of us are likely to become TikTok influencers anytime soon.
