Rationale
Azure AI Search is a knowledge retrieval system that powers RAG for agents, focusing on search and retrieval capabilities. While it offers semantic search and data protection, it is primarily a backend service for developers to build AI applications, rather than an end-user file organization tool with conversational AI for direct file manipulation. It lacks features like automated sorting rules, direct file editing/renaming, or a conversational AI interface for file management as described in the Dynbox concept.
