DevExpress demos connecting Azure OpenAI tool calling to Blazor grid and reporting controls for natural-language data interaction

“This is not about generating code and it's not about dropping a chatbot beside an existing app and calling it done. This is about connecting AI to the controls, to the data, and to the workflows users already rely on.”

A DevExpress conference session shows how to wire Azure OpenAI tool calling into Blazor apps so users can drive DevExpress grids, reports, and contract review via natural language rather than manual filtering. It's a vendor implementation demo illustrating the agentic-UI trend but carries little broad industry significance.
