AI-900: Microsoft Certified Azure AI Fundamentals

Generative AI

Introduction to Generative AI

Welcome to our comprehensive guide on Generative AI. In this article, we explore how machines can create diverse content from simple instructions—unlocking capabilities that range from natural language generation to code production and image creation.

Generative AI offers a wide array of applications, including:

  1. Natural Language Generation

    Generative AI excels in producing human-like text. For example, you can ask it to generate a formal leave letter that you can customize with your personal details.

  2. Visual Content Creation

    AI-driven visual content creation enables the development of innovative designs from minimal input. Imagine generating a unique logo for a flight booking company simply from a short prompt.

  3. Code Generation

    Generative AI is also capable of writing code. If you need a Python function to convert an integer to its binary representation, you don’t need to start from scratch—the AI can generate it for you. Below is an example:

    def binaryFinder(n):
        return bin(n)
    

This function demonstrates how Python's built-in bin() function converts an integer (n) into a binary string.

These examples highlight how Generative AI can respond to a variety of requests, enabling users to complete tasks more efficiently and creatively.

In upcoming lessons, we will delve deeper into:

  • The inner workings of generative models.
  • Various techniques employed by these models.
  • Their diverse applications across industries.

Let’s dive into the world of Generative AI—starting with language models and extending our exploration to the broader capabilities of this transformative technology.
