Generative AI is a branch of artificial intelligence focused on creating new content such as text, images, music, or code based on patterns learned from existing data. It uses deep learning models – especially large language models (LLMs) and generative adversarial networks (GANs) – to produce outputs that closely resemble human-created work. These systems can draft articles, generate artwork, compose music, and even simulate voices or video, transforming industries from media and design to healthcare and education. The power of generative AI lies in its ability to synthesize creativity and automation, but it also raises ethical questions about authenticity, bias, and intellectual property. As the technology evolves, it continues to redefine how humans and machines collaborate in creative and professional tasks.
OpenAI has introduced Sora 2, a next-generation video AI model with synchronized audio, improved physics, and tighter control, alongside a companion social app.
Opera today introduced Neon, an AI-powered browser that can run tasks and navigate pages autonomously — aiming to shift web browsing from passive to “agentic.”
OpenAI’s next version of its Sora video generator will default to including copyrighted content unless owners explicitly opt out – drawing criticism from media creators.
OpenAI introduces ChatGPT Pulse, a proactive feature delivering daily updates and suggestions directly in the app, positioning it as a potential challenger to social media feeds.
AI search startup Perplexity has reportedly raised $200 million at a $20 billion valuation, just two months after a $100 million round – signaling its rapid rise as a major rival to Google.
