6.1.3. Common Generative AI Scenarios
Generative AI enables many practical applications:
Content Creation:
- Writing assistance and editing
- Blog posts, articles, marketing copy
- Code generation and documentation
Copilots: Copilots are AI assistants integrated into applications that help users with common tasks. They:
- Use plugins to extend capabilities
- Provide contextual assistance
- Are based on a common architecture
Image Generation: DALL-E and similar models can:
- Create new images from text descriptions
- Create variations of existing images
- Edit portions of images
⚠️ Exam Trap: Image generation features include: new image creation, creating variations, and editing images. Animation of static images is NOT a standard image generation feature.
Knowledge Bases and Q&A: Generative AI can power intelligent Q&A systems using:
- Webpages as sources
- Existing FAQ documents
- Manually entered question-answer pairs
Code assistance: Generative AI can help developers by:
- Writing code from natural language descriptions
- Explaining existing code
- Debugging and fixing errors
- Converting code between languages
- Generating documentation
Summarization: LLMs excel at condensing long content:
- Meeting notes to key points
- Document summarization
- Email thread summaries
- Article abstracts
⚠️ Exam Trap: Audio files and images CANNOT directly be used to generate knowledge base content. You need text-based sources.
