Generative AI is transforming industries with its ability to create human-like text, images, and more. Below are 12 key terms every AI enthusiast should understand, along with practical applications.
1. LLM (Large Language Model)
➤ Advanced AI trained on vast datasets for human-like text generation.
You Should Know:
from transformers import pipeline
generator = pipeline('text-generation', model='gpt-3')
print(generator("Explain quantum computing in simple terms."))
2. Transformers
➤ Neural networks using attention mechanisms for processing sequences.
You Should Know:
from transformers import BertTokenizer, BertModel
tokenizer = BertTokenizer.from_pretrained('bert-base-uncased')
model = BertModel.from_pretrained('bert-base-uncased')
3. Prompt Engineering
➤ Crafting inputs to guide AI outputs effectively.
You Should Know:
curl -X POST https://api.openai.com/v1/completions -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" -d '{"prompt": "Write a poem about AI", "max_tokens": 50}'
4. Fine-Tuning
➤ Adapting pre-trained models for specialized tasks.
You Should Know:
from transformers import Trainer, TrainingArguments trainer = Trainer(model=model, args=training_args, train_dataset=dataset) trainer.train()
5. Embeddings
➤ Converting text into numerical vectors for analysis.
You Should Know:
import openai embedding = openai.Embedding.create(input="AI is revolutionary", model="text-embedding-ada-002")
6. RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation)
➤ Combining retrieval and generation for accurate responses.
You Should Know:
git clone https://github.com/facebookresearch/rag cd rag && pip install -e .
7. Tokens
➤ Small units (words/subwords) processed by AI models.
You Should Know:
tokens = tokenizer.tokenize("Generative AI is powerful.")
8. Hallucination
➤ AI generating false but plausible information.
Mitigation:
response = generator("What is the capital of Mars?", temperature=0.2) Lower temperature reduces randomness
9. Zero-Shot Learning
➤ AI performing tasks without prior examples.
You Should Know:
classifier = pipeline("zero-shot-classification")
result = classifier("AI is transforming healthcare", candidate_labels=["tech", "health", "business"])
10. Chain-of-Thought
➤ Breaking problems into logical steps for better reasoning.
Example
"Solve step-by-step: If 3x + 5 = 20, what is x?"
11. Context Window
➤ Maximum input size an AI can process at once.
Optimization:
truncate --length 4096 input.txt Ensure input fits model limits
12. Temperature
➤ Controls randomness in AI outputs (0 = deterministic, 1 = creative).
You Should Know:
generator("Write a story:", temperature=0.7) Balanced creativity
