How it works
Generative AI refers to a category of artificial intelligence systems capable of creating new, original content rather than just analyzing or classifying existing data. These models learn patterns and structures from vast datasets and use this knowledge to produce novel outputs like realistic images, human-like text, or complex audio compositions. Prominent examples include large language models and image generation models.
