Create multimodal AI agents with persistent memory | DEMSP390

Microsoft Developer (Build) · Jun 04, 2026 · Product Launches

Microsoft Foundry lets developers create multimodal AI agents that behave like people in a few clicks.

“Next year you're going to come and you're going to see agents that are no longer just chat bots. You're going to see agents that are like people.”

A Microsoft Build session presents a speculative 'time machine to 2027' demo pitching Foundry as a way to spin up multimodal, persistent-memory AI agents (the fictional 'Napster' crew) across edge and cloud with minimal coding. The talk is largely promotional and vision-oriented with no concrete product specs, metrics, or hard announcements, so it carries weak verifiable signal despite touching the agent-platform trend.
