How Generative AI is used in Medicine
Generative AI (GenAI) is a type of artificial intelligence (AI) that can create new content based on what it has learned from existing content.
The new generated content can be text, images, video, audio, or code.
When given a textual prompt, GenAI uses a statistical model (ML) to predict what an expected response might be, and this generates new content.
The most prominent examples that originally triggered the mass interest in generative AI are ChatGPT, DALL-E, Google Bard, and Bing Chat.
