Generative AI (GenAI) stands at the forefront of today’s fast-paced tech climate, driving unprecedented innovation and efficiency. To harness GenAI's full potential, organizations must leverage advanced technologies and expert services for high-quality data curation, accurate annotations, precise model tuning, and comprehensive oversight.
What is generative AI?
Generative AI uses neural networks to create new content by learning from large datasets. This cutting-edge technology generates text, images, and more, producing outputs that are often indistinguishable from human-created content. Generative AI applications are vast, ranging from creative content creation to solving complex problems in various domains.
GenAI vs. LLMs and Foundational Models
Generative AI (GenAI) is a broad term for algorithms that create new content in various formats. Though they are often used interchangeably, it's important to distinguish GenAI from large language models (LLMs) or foundational models.
The distinction is similar to deep learning within machine learning. Deep learning uses multilayered neural networks (NNs) for tasks like computer vision, which interprets visual input using architectures like ResNet.
GenAI includes subfields like NLP GenAI and computer vision GenAI. LLMs are specific to NLP GenAI, while foundational models apply to computer vision GenAI. Accurate terminology is crucial to avoid confusion.
Generative AI, LLMs, and foundational models have distinct roles. Generative AI creates new content from existing data, like artwork or music. LLMs, a subset of GenAI, produce human-like text for applications like storytelling or chatbots. Foundational models, like BERT or CLIP, serve as versatile bases for AI tasks, such as sentiment analysis or image captioning, and can be fine-tuned for specific applications.
