Generative AI Overview

The video discusses the essentials of generative AI (Gen AI), covering key terminologies, model APIs, how to build AI applications, and methods for customizing models through retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) and fine-tuning.

Key Points

• Understanding AI: Development of systems that perform tasks requiring human intelligence, with machine learning, natural language processing (NLP), and computer vision as key subfields.
• Machine Learning: A subset of AI enabling models to learn from data and improve without explicit programming.
• Deep Learning: A subfield of machine learning that employs artificial neural networks; notably, Transformer models have advanced NLP.
• Generative AI: AI systems capable of generating new content (text, images, music) using deep learning techniques.
• Large Language Models (LLMs): AI models trained on vast text data to produce human-like text for various language tasks.
• Prompt Engineering: Designing effective prompts to elicit desired outputs from generative AI models; involves understanding capabilities, limitations, and biases.
• Using Model APIs: Accessing generative AI models typically via REST APIs; securing API keys and optimizing usage for reliability and efficiency is essential.
• Building AI Applications: Examples include creating a chatbot for personalized book recommendations; involves choosing an LLM provider and developing user interfaces.
• Customization Techniques:
  • Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG): Incorporates real-time external information to enhance the AI’s response accuracy.
  • Fine-Tuning: Adapts a pre-trained AI model for specific needs, improving performance on domain-specific tasks.
• Generative AI’s potential: Offers a wide range of opportunities for innovative applications in various domains.
