Generative artificial intelligence (GAI) and large language models (LLM) are machine learning algorithms that operate in an unsupervised or semi-supervised manner. These algorithms leverage pre-existing content, such as text, photos, audio, video, and code, to generate novel content. The primary objective is to produce authentic and novel material. In addition, there exists an absence of constraints on the quantity of novel material that they are capable of generating. New material can be generated through the utilization of Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) or natural language interfaces, such as the ChatGPT developed by Open AI and Bard developed by Google. The field of generative artificial intelligence (AI) stands out due to its unique characteristic of undergoing development and maturation in a highly transparent manner, with its progress being observed by the public at large. The current era of artificial intelligence is being influenced by the imperative to effectively utilise its capabilities in order to enhance corporate operations. Specifically, the use of large language model (LLM) capabilities, which fall under the category of Generative AI, holds the potential to redefine the limits of innovation and productivity. However, as firms strive to include new technologies, there is a potential for compromising data privacy, long-term competitiveness, and environmental sustainability. This book delves into the exploration of generative artificial intelligence (GAI) and LLM. It examines the historical and evolutionary development of generative AI models, as well as the challenges and issues that have emerged from these models and LLM.
