4. Integration: AI Builder seamlessly integrates with other Power Platform components, including Power Apps and Power Automate, enabling the incorporation of AI capabilities into existing workflows and applications.

5. Automated Training: The platform takes care of the training process, making it easy for users to create and deploy AI models without deep expertise in machine learning algorithms.

AI Builder in Power Apps:

Microsoft Power Apps AI Builder can be used in the formula bar or as a component, depending on the model utilized. To use the AI model in Power Apps, formula bar Power Fx functions can be used. It supports all pre-built and custom models. It also supports models built on the Microsoft Azure Machine Learning platform. The AI Builder is also helpful as a component in Power Apps, which can be added using the 'Insert' tab in the Canvas.
