Generative AI glossary FAQs

A generative AI glossary is a collection of terms and definitions related to generative artificial intelligence, helping users understand the specialized vocabulary of this rapidly evolving field.

It helps demystify complex concepts, promotes clear communication, and ensures a shared understanding of terminology among professionals, researchers, and enthusiasts in the AI domain.

Terms include Large Language Models (LLMs), diffusion models, transformers, prompt engineering, fine-tuning, hallucination, GANs (Generative Adversarial Networks), and various generative tasks.

Generative AI refers to AI models capable of creating new, original content, such as text, images, audio, or video, that resembles human-generated content.

A prompt is the input text or instruction given to a Generative AI model to guide its output, influencing the content and style of the generated response.

It serves as a foundational reference tool, enabling individuals to grasp key concepts quickly and build a solid understanding of how generative models work and are applied.

Hallucination refers to instances where a generative AI model produces outputs that are factually incorrect, nonsensical, or unfaithful to the input prompt, despite appearing plausible.
