This week, we're exploring a remarkable leap in human evolution. No, we're not discussing the ability to communicate with dolphins using bubblegum language (yet!) but rather delving into the captivating domain of generative AI. It's an exciting world where machines can create art, compose music, and even write stories that captivate our imagination. Let's dive in and unlock the limitless possibilities of generative AI!

It is a shocker to see how generative AI has become so advanced that it can do poetry and paint landscapes. But was it like this since always?

Let's start with this article which gives a very comprehensive explanation of how AI has evolved throughout the years. This article takes you on a journey through the significant advancements in AI that have shaped our present reality from 2012 until now.

Over time, AI has experienced significant transformations and advancements across various domains. In the early days, rule-based systems laid the foundation for AI, using predefined instructions to solve specific problems.

Interestingly, engineers soon worked on a new method that was revolutionary. The evolution of AI witnessed a paradigm shift with the emergence of machine learning algorithms. This led to breakthroughs in areas like computer vision, where convolutional neural networks (CNNs) gained prominence, enabling accurate image recognition and object detection.

Additionally, the development of transformer architectures, exemplified by the introduction of GPT (Generative Pretrained Transformer) models, revolutionized natural language processing. Transformers introduced self-attention mechanisms that enabled more efficient processing of long-range dependencies, leading to significant improvements in machine translation, language modeling, and question-answering.

From modest beginnings to a household name, these trailblazing advancements collectively propelled AI to transform industries and open up new opportunities for exploration and innovation. After all, the sky is the limit.
