Generative Artificial Intelligence (AI)

Definition

TechRepublic defines generative AI as a subfield of artificial intelligence in which computer algorithms are used to generate outputs that resemble human-created content, be it text, images, graphics, music, computer code or otherwise. Generative AI is the type of AI that has been the area where the most significant and publicized progress has been made recently. In the case of ChatGPT, generative AI is classified as a model that can generate narrative content in response to a prompt. A prompt is either a question or reference to a subject the user is interested in finding information on. Crafting a prompt which returns the most efficient set of results requires some testing and configuring from the user.  Some speculations indicate prompt engineering will be incorporated into job duties when generative AI becomes more pervasive in the workplace. Tools like ChatGPT and DALL-E (a tool that generates art) have the potential to change the way people access information. The full breadth of that change is still being debated, however the initial areas where this technology is being applied is to search and analyze online data including both public data and private enterprise data
