Generative AI & Gemini

What is Generative AI?

Generative AI has become very popular lately where its being used by the masses to generate different types of content ranging from text, images, videos, etc. Generative AI is a subset of artificial intelligence (AI) techniques that focus on generating new, original content based on input data or patterns learned from existing data. Unlike traditional AI models that are designed for specific tasks such as classification or prediction, generative AI models are capable of creating entirely new data samples that resemble the training data they were exposed to. It makes the uses of generative models which generate new content based on a learned probability distribution of existing data.

What is Gemini?

Gemini is a LLM (large language model) developed by Google Deepmind capable of generating text, translating language and writing all sorts of creative content. It is multimodal in the sense that it can understand a wide range of information ranging from text,audio, images, etc and provide output accordingly.

I know this article is short. In the next we will be building a generative AI application with the Gemini API
