Generative AI uses deep learning to create new content in response to natural language prompts. It can also generate text, images, music, and code. There are several types of AI, each designed for different purposes: Traditional AI - Automates specific tasks using predefined rules and algorithms, often used in manufacturing and data processing.Predictive AI - Analyzes historical data to forecast future outcomes, commonly used in finance, healthcare, and marketing.Conversational AI - Powers chatbots and virtual assistants to facilitate natural language interactions, generating human-like responses. Generative AI is different because it creates content rather than simply analyzing or predicting based on existing data.
