Main Concept
Generative AI (Gen-AI) is a subset of Deep Learning that is used to generate new data that is similar to the data it was trained on. So it is used to create content like text (conversations), images, code, music, video, etc…
Key Aspect
- Generative AI use Generative Model, which in turn could be a Foundation Model or a smaller specialized model.
Basic Example
- You train the Generative Model with a lot of pictures of dogs, but you also train the model with a lot of pictures of cartoons, so the model is capable to identify what is a dog and what is a cartoon.
- Then the Generative Model is capable to generate a completely new image (never seen before by the model) that is a dog but looks like a cartoon.
