Abstract
En 中文
Generative artificial intelligence (GAI), a specialized branch of artificial intelligence, has developed as a dynamic discipline that drives innovation and creativity across several domains. It is concerned with creating models that can autonomously produce novel text, images, videos, music, 3D, code, and more. GAI is distinguished by its capacity to acquire knowledge from extensive datasets, identify recurring patterns, capture distributions, and produce novel content demonstrating similar features. This review presents a comprehensive historical overview of the development and progression of GAI techniques over the years. Various essential methodologies employed in developing GAI are also discussed, including Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs), Variational AutoEncoders (VAEs), transformers, and diffusion models. Moreover, a detailed overview of the technologies used in GAI is provided for generating images, videos, music, code, and text, such as ChatGPT, DALL-E, Midjourney, Claude, Bard, GitHub Copilot, and others. The research subsequently introduces the different datasets used to train the GAI models and the evaluation metrics for evaluating their performances. Ultimately, the research investigates the diverse applications of GAI across various domains, challenges, and ethical implications.
