ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Generative AI

"Generative AI is like having a really smart computer friend that can come up with new things all on its own! Just like you create something new when you draw a picture or build with Legos, the computer friend can "create" new things too, but in a way that only computers can. Generative AI can look at lots of examples of things, like pictures of dogs, and then use that information to make a new picture of a dog that it's never seen before. It's almost like magic! But instead of a wand, it uses special computer algorithms and a lot of data to do its tricks."
