Generative AI

AI systems that create new content — text, images, audio, video, or code — rather than just analyzing or classifying existing data.

Definition

The explosive growth of ChatGPT, DALL-E, Midjourney, and similar tools has made this the most visible branch of AI. Powered by large language models and diffusion models.
