What Is Generative AI? A Beginner’s Guide

Generative AI is a type of artificial intelligence that can create new content such as text, images, audio or code.

Start with the basics

Start with the basic idea: a generative model learns patterns from large amounts of data and uses those patterns to produce new outputs from a user instruction.

Practical steps

Common uses include drafting text, summarizing information, brainstorming, creating images and helping with software development. The quality of the result depends on the model, the prompt and the task.

Important note

AI output can be inaccurate, incomplete or outdated. For important decisions, verify information with reliable primary sources and use human judgment.
