In this lesson

Prepare for the AI-500 exam (Microsoft Certified: Multi-Agent AI Solutions Expert). In this lesson: few-shot examples, clear syntax and structured outputs, dynamic context injection and context-aware behaviors, defensive guidelines against direct and indirect prompt injection and prompt leakage (Prompt Shields, output validation, persona stability), prompt lifecycle management with versions, A/B tests, and agentic evaluators, and a fine-tuning strategy: when to fine-tune, SFT, DPO, or RFT, training data, and retraining frequency. Includes three original practice questions.

  • Contoso’s visa agent reads PDFs that travelers upload, and one of them hid white text telling the agent to approve the visa. Which defense targets this attack first?
  • A Contoso developer edits the refund agent’s prompt directly in production, and nobody can tell which change caused the new errors. What should the team adopt?
  • Contoso’s labeling agent needs a strict JSON format and specialized visa vocabulary, the team has 2,000 reviewed examples, and its instructions keep growing. What should the team consider?
