In our modern, technology-driven era, the reference to artificial intelligence, or AI, is becoming more commonplace.
For decades, science fiction books have written about its emergence and even it taking over, including George Orwell’s 1984, James Cameron’s The Terminator, or Stanley Kubrick’s 2001: A Space Odyssey.
Today, artificial intelligence technologies are rapidly evolving, with so-called large language models such as Open AI’s ChatGPT stunning audiences and spurring the release of competing products, such as Google’s Gemini and Microsoft’s Copilot.
These are a variety of generative artificial intelligence that works with language. Other kinds of generative AI include art, video or audio generators.
After its introduction in 2022, OpenAI’s ChatGPT was credited with sparking an AI arms race. Google and Microsoft promptly rushed to complete their own similar products that were still in development after seeing the popularity of ChatGPT.
AI’s uses are already myriad, and the technology is probably already present in your life without you even realizing it.
AI helps Google Maps find you the fastest route, allows Siri and Alexa respond to your requests for today’s weather and organize your calendars, and to find you the most relevant results from your search queries.
However, there is so much more to AI than the benign voice on your phone or Alexa device that can tell you the weather or stream popular music into your home.
As the uses and applications for this technology continue to evolve, people interested in learning more about how to deploy some of this groundbreaking technology should look no further than Udemy’s library of AI courses, applicable for professional development or personal enrichment.
