Practical implementation of generative artificial intelligence systems in healthcare: A United States perspective

Abstract

Generative artificial intelligence (AI) represents a subset of AI that focuses on generating new content after being trained on existing data, in contrast to deductive AI systems, which seek to analyse data to derive conclusions or predictions. The new content produced by generative AI technologies can include text, images, audio or simulations. Generative AI algorithms have evolved significantly since their inception. ‘Large language models’ (LLMs) are a subset of generative AI models and, while the terms are sometimes (inappropriately) used synonymously, the field of generative AI is much br
