Generative AI

Dr. Tony Rhem Season 1 Episode 2

Generative AI isn't just about flashy images, polished essays, or realistic voices. It’s a class of AI systems designed not merely to analyze information but to create new content—text, images, audio, video, 3D models, and even synthetic data. These models learn from massive datasets and use that knowledge to produce original outputs, making them far more than a novelty; they represent a fundamental shift in how knowledge, creativity, and digital content are generated.
