AI-102 Practice Question: Implement natural language processing solutions
A company needs to extract personally identifiable information (PII) from customer support transcripts stored in Azure Blob Storage. Which Azure AI service should they use?

In the AI-102 exam, candidates often confuse Azure AI services that process text (Language Service) versus those that process audio (Speech), images (Vision), or translation (Translator), leading them to incorrectly select Azure AI Speech when the question involves text extraction from stored files.
