Introduction to Generative AI Patterns

This chapter provides an overview of key concepts, techniques, and integration patterns related to generative AI that will empower you to harness these capabilities in real-world applications.

We will provide an overview of generative AI architectures, such as transformers and diffusion models, which are the basis for these generative models to produce text, images, audio, and more. You’ll get a brief introduction to specialized training techniques, like pre-training and prompt engineering, that upgrade basic language models into creative powerhouses.

Understanding the relentless pace of innovation in this space is critical due to new models and ethical considerations emerging constantly. We’ll introduce ...
