“If you're in the .NET ecosystem, this is the best AI integration SDK. Plugin architecture is clean and extensible.”
“Microsoft vendor lock-in disguised as open source. Everything points you toward Azure. Use provider-agnostic alternatives.”
“Enterprise AI adoption will go through existing stacks. Semantic Kernel meets .NET developers where they are.”
