What is generative AI? How artificial intelligence creates content
Every generative AI system, no matter how advanced, is built around prediction. Remember, a model doesn’t truly know facts—it looks at a series of tokens, then calculates, based on analysis of its underlying training data, what token is most likely to come next. This is what makes the output fluent and human-like, but if its […]

OpenAI launches Aardvark to detect and patch hidden bugs in code
By embedding itself directly into the development pipeline, Aardvark aims to turn security from a post-development concern into a continuous safeguard that evolves with the software itself, Jain added. From code semantics to validated patches What makes Aardvark unique, OpenAI noted, is its combination of reasoning, automation, and verification. Rather than simply highlighting potential vulnerabilities, […]
