AI GLOSSARY

Generative AI

Generative AI

A category of AI systems that produce new content, including text, images, audio, video, and code, rather than just analyzing or classifying existing data. Generative AI learns the underlying patterns and structure of its training data well enough to create new examples that resemble it, opening up applications from creative tools to synthetic data generation.
See also: large language model, diffusion model, foundation model.
