Generative AI (also known as ‘Gen’ AI) forms an integral part of the wider AI trend. Gen AI is centred around the use of language learning models that generate high-quality text, images and other content based on the data inputs in that specific model. Chat GPT is a first-hand example of a Gen AI system.
A study by Nature, a UK-based scientific journal, found that the main benefit in the use of Gen AI (in this case, for research purposes) was that it helps researchers without English as their first language to translate and edit language. Step aside, Google Translate!
