GPT-4 vision-preview vs Azure AI Vision

I've received an email saying that my Azure OpenAI services are being upgraded and that as part of that, the GPT-4 vision-preview service will no longer be supported, and that Azure AI Vision should be used instead. It also includes a link to the general Azure AI Vision page which makes no mention of how it relates to the GPT-4 vision-preview service or any discussion of transition or upgrade paths.

My question is just that; if a customer has been working with GPT-4 vision-preview, what specific guidance can we provide to transition them to Azure AI Vision?

    Hi Ken Ross

    Greetings & Welcome to Microsoft Q&A forum! Thanks for posting your query!

    While these services are distinct, we recommend transitioning structured visual tasks like OCR or image analysis to Azure AI Vision, which offers robust features for text extraction, object detection, and spatial analysis. For more complex multimodal scenarios previously handled by GPT-4 vision-preview, you can integrate Azure AI Vision with Azure OpenAI models. For example, use Azure AI Vision to extract relevant data from images, then pass this data to a GPT-4 model for reasoning or generating responses. This approach allows you to replicate the functionality of GPT-4 vision-preview by combining these services effectively.

    Hope this helps. Do let us know if you have any further queries.
