An Introduction to Generative AI: "Drawing" Data from Models

In this chapter, we will dive into the various applications of generative models. Before that, we will take a step back and examine how exactly generative models are different from other types of machine learning. The difference lies with the basic units of any machine learning algorithm: probability and the various ways we use mathematics to quantify the shape and distribution of data we encounter in the world.

In the rest of this chapter, we will cover:

  • Applications of AI
  • Discriminative and generative models
  • Implementing generative models
  • The rules of probability
  • Why use generative models?
  • Unique challenges of generative models
