Microsoft Azure AI Fundamentals AI-901 Practice Tests — 300 Questions | Printable PDF Exam Prep | Instant Download

Azure AI Fundamentals hinges on matching the right workload to the right scenario

AI-901 is not a vocabulary test. It describes a business already trying to do something and asks which Azure AI capability, model or deployment option actually fits it.

WHAT AI-901 ACTUALLY ASKS YOU

Recognising the workload: cameras above a bottling line flagging cracked caps and mislabelled bottles, and naming the AI workload category that is; the capability that must run first before a call centre can search years of audio recordings by phrase; scoring thousands of free-text reviews for overall tone without extracting topics; and telling apart a rules-based workflow that reimburses any expense under a hard-coded $50 threshold from a system that learns patterns from historical transactions. Getting these right is most of the exam.

Responsible AI and governance: the governance structure a bank needs when an AI system approves or declines loan applications — tracing every automated decision to a specific model version, naming who monitors outcomes, and the principles that requirement comes from.

Choosing and deploying models in Microsoft Foundry: comparing candidate language models side by side on cost, latency and quality benchmarks before committing budget and without writing code; the deployment option for a nightly batch pushing 50 million tokens between 1 a.m. and 4 a.m. that needs guaranteed throughput; and the serverless, pay-per-token option for a low-traffic internal bot with no compute to manage.

Model behaviour and limits: why an assistant silently drops the later sections of a 250-page merger agreement, and the model characteristic that fixes it; why the same helpdesk question returns different wording and sometimes different steps each time; and how one deployment can produce imaginative taglines for marketing while staying literal and consistent on grounded return-policy answers.

Language, vision and speech services: which Azure AI Language feature returns a single sentiment score per document, what makes recorded speech searchable as text, and where computer vision fits against document intelligence — the exam repeatedly offers a plausible neighbouring service as the wrong answer.

Those are judgement calls, not lookups. You find out whether you can make them by being forced to pick an answer before you're allowed to check it.
