AI Terms to Know
What is Generative AI?
Generative AI refers to systems that can create new content such as text, images, audio, or video using machine learning models trained on large datasets. The name "generative" means they can generate new outputs that aren't just copies of the input.
What is an AI Model?
An AI model is a program trained to recognize patterns in data and make decisions or predictions.
What is an AI Prompt?
An AI prompt is input text or data given to an AI system to instruct it to perform a specific task or generate a specific kind of output.
What is a Prompt Template?
A prompt template is a structured format used to generate consistent and useful prompts for AI systems.
What is Deep Learning? DeepSeek?
Deep learning is a type of machine learning that uses neural networks with many layers. DeepSeek is a family of open-source large language models that apply deep learning techniques to text generation and understanding.
What is ChatGPT? Gemini?
ChatGPT is an AI chatbot developed by OpenAI that uses large language models to generate responses. Gemini is Google's family of AI models for tasks similar to ChatGPT.
What is a Neural Network?
A neural network is a computing system inspired by the human brain's structure, used for recognizing patterns and making decisions. A neural net can "learn" from its experience. For example, you train a neural net that plays Tic-Tac-Toe by playing games against it, and it learns how to play.
What is Natural Language Processing?
Natural Language Processing (NLP) enables computers to understand and work with human language. It is used in applications like translation and chatbots.
What is an LLM (Large Language Model)?
LLMs are AI models trained on large volumes of text to understand and generate language for various tasks like answering questions or summarizing content.
