How to assess whether to apply generative AI to a task? ***
1.) Is the task generative? 2.) Can the task be iterated on to achieve the best outcome? 3.) Are their resources to provide adequate human oversight?
Human-in-the-loop Approach
A combination of machine and human intelligence to train, use, verify, and refine AI models Oversite is essential when getting the best of response from AI
AI Model
A computer program trained on a set of data to recognize patters and perform specific tasks.
Hullicinations
AI outcomes that are not true.
Speeko
AI that teachers users how to speak and communicate more proficiently.
AI Tool
AI-powered software that can automate or assist users with a variety of tasks.

Large Language Model - LLM
An AI model that is trained on large amounts of text to identify patterns between words concepts and phrases so that it can generate responses to prompts. Use statistics to analyze the relationship between all the words in a sequence. These have a tendency to hallucinate. Don't make assumptions about an LLM accuracy. Large language models often waver in their ability to produce accurate results.
Conversational AI Tools include
Anthropic Claude - More math based Gemini - Creativity and writing based Microsoft Copilot - Good for research, searching online, compare products, summarize web content. ChatGPT - Generate idea, plan schedule debug code, and proofread text.
Custom AI Solution
Application that Taylor made to solve a specific problem. Ex. John Hopkins created a specific AI system used to identify synopsis.
Integrated AI
Built in AI enhancement in a preexisting software.
Conversational AI
Can process texts request and generate text responses. Their ability to simulate human-like conversations enables them to provide detailed and nuanced answers to questions
Productivity and Writing Assistants

Jasper - Great for writing assistant for sales, influencing, content creating, and marketing NotebookLM - Summarizes or ask specific questions about texts notes and sources Notion AI - Notion AI is a writing assistant built into Notion, a productivity and note-taking software tool.
Coed Generative AI tools
Gemini Code Assist - A plugin for popular integrated development environments (IDEs), Gemini Code Assist allows users to prompt Gemini within their IDEs to generate code, troubleshoot bugs, and answer questions about software development. GITHub Copilit Tabnine Jupyter AI
Knowledge cutoff
The concept that an AI model is trained at a specific point in time, so it doesn't have any knowledge of events or information after that date.
Responsible AI
The principle of developing and using AI ethically, with the intent of benefiting people and society while avoiding harm
Difference between AI model and AI task
Think of it like a car, the AI model is the engine, and the AI Tool is the car itself. AI models power the tool. The AI tool (Car) is user friendly, and helps you accomplish the task or get from Point A to B. The AI model is what lies beneath, which truly does all the heavy lifting. Some tools leverage multiple AI models, which work together as a family.
