🤖 Episode 09 – Build Your First AI Agent with Multi-Tool Orchestration

Welcome to the ninth official release of the Complete .NET AI Developer Series (2026).

In this episode, we're moving beyond traditional AI chatbots and building our first AI Agent using .NET and Semantic Kernel.

A traditional chatbot primarily generates responses.

An AI Agent can go further.

It can understand a user's request, determine what actions are required, select the appropriate tools, execute multiple functions, and combine the results into an intelligent response.

In this release, we'll explore how Semantic Kernel enables AI Agents to orchestrate multiple tools dynamically using plugins and function calling.
