Unit 5: Introduction to Generative AI

From Predicting Data to Creating Masterpieces

1. What is Generative AI?

Traditional AI (Discriminative AI) is like a judge—it looks at data and decides what it is (e.g., "This is a cat"). Generative AI is like an artist—it takes what it has learned and creates something entirely new (e.g., "Draw a cat wearing a space suit").

Definition: Generative AI refers to algorithms (like LLMs) that can be used to create new content, including audio, code, images, text, and videos.

2. Discriminative vs. Generative AI

Feature Discriminative AI Generative AI
Goal Categorize or Predict Create New Content
Input Data points Prompts (Instructions)
Example Spam Filter, Face ID ChatGPT, Midjourney

3. How does it work? (LLMs)

Generative AI for text uses Large Language Models (LLMs). These models are trained on billions of pages of text so they can predict the "next most likely word" in a sentence. It’s like a very advanced version of the "Autofill" on your phone keyboard!

4. Ethics of Generative AI

  • Hallucinations: Sometimes AI gives confident but completely wrong answers.
  • Deepfakes: Creating realistic but fake images/videos of people.
  • Copyright: Who owns the art created by an AI?
