What is Generative AI?
Generative AI is a class of artificial intelligence that can generate new content such as text, images, code, and music using large datasets. Unlike traditional AI, which analyzes and predicts, GenAI creates.
How Does It Work?
GenAI models, like GPT, DALL·E, or Claude, are trained on massive volumes of content. They learn patterns, structures, and relationships — allowing them to generate similar or new outputs based on user input.
Real-Life Applications:
Coding: AI writes complete functions with a single prompt.
Marketing: Generates emails, blogs, and ad creatives.
Education: Personalized tutoring and question generation.
Healthcare: Medical report generation, drug discovery assistance.
Tools to Explore:
ChatGPT / Claude.ai – Text generation and automation
MidJourney / DALL·E – Image creation from text
GitHub Copilot / Amazon CodeWhisperer – AI-assisted coding
Notion AI / Jasper – Content creation for business
Why It Matters:
It democratizes creation — making powerful tools accessible to non-tech users and dramatically improving productivity across sectors.
