Short answer

The Microsoft Azure AI Fundamentals (AI-900) practice exam has 50 questions in 85 minutes, with a 70% passing mark, as configured here. The fastest way to know whether you are ready is to sit a full exam on the clock and read your score by domain, not only the total.

Domains covered

  • AI Workloads and Considerations
  • Computer Vision Workloads on Azure
  • Generative AI Workloads on Azure
  • Machine Learning on Azure
  • Natural Language Processing Workloads on Azure

Sample questions, with explanations

Three questions from the bank, open to read.

Question 1 · Natural Language Processing Workloads on Azure

An analyst needs to scan thousands of free-text survey responses and automatically pull out the main talking points (such as 'delivery time' or 'customer service') without manually reading each one. Which Azure AI Language feature best fits this need?

  1. Sentiment analysis
  2. Text-to-speech
  3. Language detection
  4. Key phrase extraction ✓ (correct)
Why this is correct

Key phrase extraction is correct because it identifies the most important words and phrases in a body of text, which is exactly how you surface recurring topics across many survey responses. Sentiment analysis tells you whether each response is positive or negative, not what topics the responses are about. Text-to-speech does the opposite of what is needed: it converts text into spoken audio. Language detection only identifies which language the text is written in (e.g., English or Spanish); it does not extract topics.

Question 2 · Machine Learning on Azure

A team has a large collection of customer records but no predefined categories, and they want the model to discover natural groupings of similar customers on its own. Which machine learning approach fits this goal?

  1. Supervised learning using classification
  2. Reinforcement learning using a reward signal
  3. Supervised learning using regression
  4. Unsupervised learning using clustering ✓ (correct)
Why this is correct

'Unsupervised learning using clustering' is correct: when there are no labels and the goal is to find natural groupings in the data, clustering (an unsupervised technique) is the appropriate choice. 'Supervised learning using classification' is wrong because classification requires labeled examples that define the categories in advance, which this team does not have. 'Supervised learning using regression' is wrong because regression predicts a continuous numeric target from labeled data, and there is neither a numeric target nor labels here. 'Reinforcement learning using a reward signal' is wrong because that approach learns through trial-and-error interactions guided by rewards, which does not match the task of grouping a static set of records.

Question 3 · AI Workloads and Considerations

An AI system used for medical triage is required to operate consistently and safely even when it encounters unusual or unexpected input conditions, with rigorous testing before release. Which responsible AI principle is the primary focus here?

  1. Fairness
  2. Transparency
  3. Reliability and safety ✓ (correct)
  4. Inclusiveness
Why this is correct

Requiring the system to behave consistently and safely, including under unexpected conditions and after rigorous testing, is the reliability and safety principle. Transparency is wrong because it is about helping people understand the system, not about robust and safe operation. Inclusiveness is wrong because it concerns making the system usable by people of all abilities, not its operational dependability. Fairness is wrong because it concerns equitable treatment across groups; a system can be fair yet still behave unreliably under edge cases, so the two principles are distinct.
