32 TECHNOLOGY Generative AI: A type of AI that can create new data or content, such as images, text, music or even videos, by learning patterns and structures from existing examples. It works by understanding and mimicking the patterns and styles it has seen in the data it was trained on.The most publicly recognized tool in the last year is ChatGPT, built by the company OpenAI. ChatGPT is an artificial intelligence chatbot that can process natural human language and generate a response. It has revolutionized how we interact with computer systems and has influenced the evolution of AI. Additional generative AI tools from other major technology companies include: Meta’s Llama 2, Microsoft’s Copilot, Google’s PaLM 2, Amazon’s Bedrock and Dall-E 2, also from OpenAI. Predictive AI: A type of AI that uses data and machine learning algorithms to forecast future events or trends. It helps businesses and organizations make informed decisions by analyzing historical data, identifying patterns and making predictions based on those patterns.
