What is Gen AI?

Artificial Intelligence (AI) refers to machines or software that are designed to mimic human intelligence such as learning, problem solving or decision making.

There are many types of AI. GenAI is a type of artificial intelligence that can create new content–such as text, images, code or music by identifying patterns and making predictions based on the vast amounts of data it is trained on. GenAI produces outputs that resemble human-created content.
