In this tutorial, you'll learn how to create Azure AI Services Resources.

Azure AI Services: Azure AI services help developers and organizations rapidly create intelligent, cutting-edge, market-ready, and responsible applications with out-of-the-box and pre-built and customizable APIs and models. Example applications include natural language processing for conversations, search, monitoring, translation, speech, vision, and decision-making.
I will discuss creating Azure AI Services Resources in Azure Portal in this tutorial.

We have different Azure AI Services:
1) **Azure OpenAI** - This performs a wide variety of natural language tasks.
2) **AI Search** - It brings AI-powered cloud search to your mobile and web app
3) **Computer vision**: This is used to perform different tasks, like Video Retrieval and Summary to Generate a summary of the main points shown in the video, recognize products on shelves, customize models with images, search photos with image retrieval, add dense captions to images, remove backgrounds from images, add captions to images, detect common objects in images, extract text from images, extract printed and handwritten style text from images and documents for supported languages, extract common tags from images, create smart-cropped images and detect faces in an image.

4) **Face API**: It is used to detect and identify people and emotions in images. 
5) **Custom vision**: It Customizes image recognition to fit your business
6) **Speech service**: it is used to convert Speech to text, text to speech, translation and speaker recognition.
7) **Language service**: It builds apps with industry-leading natural language understanding capabilities.
8) **Translator**: It translates more than 100 languages and dialects
Document intelligence
9) **Bot services**: It creates bots and connects them across channels.
10) **Anomaly detector**: It identifies potential problems early on.
11) **Content Moderator**: It detects potentially offensive or unwanted content.
12) **Health Insights**: The Health Insights SDK makes it easy to integrate Health Insights into your web application.
13) **Personalizer**:  It creates rich, personalized experiences for each user.
15) **Metrics advisor**: This is an AI service that detects unwanted content.
16) **Immersive reader**: It helps users read and comprehend text.

17) **Content safety**: An AI service that detects unwanted contents

You can also perform Object Character recognition to extract text from images.
You can also perform spatial analysis to Generate a brief summary of the main points shown in video, Count people in an area, Detect when people cross a line, Detect when people enter/exit a zone and Monitor social distancing.
