Generative AI
AI systems that create new content like text, images, code, or audio based on patterns learned from training data, rather than just analyzing existing information. These models learn the underlying structure and style of their training data to produce original content that didn't exist before. It's like having an artist who has studied millions of paintings and can now create new artwork in various styles, or a writer who has read countless books and can craft original stories. Unlike traditional AI that classifies or predicts, generative AI is creative - it can write poetry, generate realistic images from text descriptions, compose music, or even create entire video games from simple prompts.
