Do you need to think anymore? or is there someone who can think for you?

This sounds interesting, right? Someone who can think for you in a snap 🫰🏻in whatever space you want at any point in time.

Ever wondered if someone could think for you while you kick back and relax? 😅 No secrets here — I’m just like you! 😎

Boieee ooo boieeee… welcome to the reality check! Tech Giants (F̶MAANG) have rolled out AI platforms. Just input your thoughts, and voila! AI swiftly produces synthetic data in any format — text, audio, image, or video — in the blink of an eye 👀.

This tale 📗 explores Generative AI 🤖 — its definition 📄, functioning 🔧, the difference between AI and Generative AI ⚖️ , whether it’s a real human replacement or just hype 👦 / 🤖, where it finds application 🎰 and some interesting talks.

What is Generative AI?

Generative AI is a type of intelligence technology that can actually produce various types of content (Text, Audio, Image, Audio), we are talking about generating content not classifying or predicting it.

Generative AI is not a new technology it was introduced in the 1960s as chatbots, it was highlighted again in 2014 as Generative Adversarial Networks(GANs).

Think > Type > and see what you have thought, it's that easy 😆

What if I say you all have used and are using Generative AI in your day-to-day life, shocked? 😱
Today morning you might have emailed your boss, colleague, customer or someone from your family, and you might have used a sliver of generative AI right there.

I inputted “Hope you,” and the rest was generated by Google. Nowadays, you folks use Chat-GPT, a prime example of Generative AI.

Input your thoughts and here you go. It generates content that is not present in the world, for example, you can ask Chat-GPT to write a poem on the wine stain on my white shirt 😅 (I know that was weird but chat-GPT wrote a poem for me).

This is the power of Generative AI. You can do pretty much everything with the help of Generative AI, literally everything.

AI-generated real human faces.

Believe it or not, this is an AI-generated image that looks like a real human and the fact is this face is not present in the world.

How does Generative AI work?

Generative AI commences with a prompt, which may take the form of text, an image, a video, a design, musical notes, or any input processable by the AI system.

Generative AI employs machine learning to examine prevalent patterns and structures within extensive datasets. It utilizes this knowledge to produce new content resembling the data on which it was trained. The greater the volume of data or examples available for generative AI to learn from, the more advanced its capabilities become.

Difference between Traditional AI and Generative AI

Traditional AI

  • Traditional AI needs clear examples and organized data to learn, and it works best when there are straightforward rules and standards in place. (Rule-based approach)
  • Limited for performing already planned jobs. (Supervised learning).
  • Makes guesses and sorting things based on existing data.

Generative AI

  • It can create content without detailed programming and handles unstructured data (Data-driven approach).
  • More creative, can work on prompts and is flexible.
  • Generative AI can use both supervised and unsupervised learning.
  • Can be used in making books, art, music and other creative things.
  • Generates context-based and innovative context rather than task-based context.

Will it replace humans or Just be hyped?

Replacing Humans is not that easy and it’s not going to happen shortly, also AI is not just the hype. If you check the history this is not the first evolution, we have evolved a lot and we will keep evolving, it's just that you need to be with the change.

Consider the case of a traditional bookstore owner. In the past, they operated manually, managing physical books. However, with technological advancements, we now have e-books, online platforms, and digital reading devices. To thrive in this evolving landscape, it becomes essential for the bookstore owner to adapt and embrace digital platforms and modern reading preferences.

It’s just that you need to learn how AI will help you boost your productivity and pace up your work, we need to learn how AI will be useful in your work.

AI is not here to replace you, it’s here to make your work easy. But if you see the dark side, if we don’t update at the pace at which AI is growing it will surely take over your work.

What are the platforms where I can use Generative AI?

Starting from the basics, you might have been using Chat-GPT in your daily life, it's the best example of a platform to use generative AI.

Some of the best examples are where you can experience the power of generative AI.

Sometimes I feel AI is scary 😱

  • What if AI takes over and the world turns into the Terminator movie set 😰
  • What if this happens to you or someone from your family?

This is not so far in the future now, this is so happening.

Now this is scary, comment your thoughts and let me know what do you think of AI and what should be the precautions taken to not create our digital footprints.
