What changed?
Microsoft announced voice agents in Foundry Agent Service in public preview. The aim is to manage spoken experiences through a shared development and operations workflow rather than a chain of separate components.
The detail to keep in mind
The announcement covers voice-model choices, reusable tools and conversational observability. Preview status means organizations still need to check availability and deployment conditions.
