Generative artificial intelligence is changing the business world. More businesses are now looking to incorporate generative AI<\/a> tools to reduce costs, optimize operations, as well as find new revenue streams.<\/p>\n

The growing popularity comes less than a year since the majority of generative AI tools, including text generator ChatGPT<\/a> and image creator Midjourney<\/a>, were introduced in 2022.<\/p>\n

Generative AI is artificial intelligence<\/a> technology that enables users to generate texts, images, sounds, animations, and other types of data based on a variety of inputs.<\/p>\n

According to a 2023 survey by consulting firm McKinsey<\/a>, one-third of survey respondents said their companies are using generative AI (GAI) in at least one business function.<\/p>\n

There is so much hype around AI technology that 40% of the survey respondents said that their companies will increase their investments in overall AI.<\/p>\n

Technology heavyweights like Google, Adobe, and Meta have released several GAI tools in the past year. Google has incorporated the technology to help users write emails and edit photos. Adobe launched image-generating tools to compete with front runners such as Midjourney. Meta rolled out a generative AI tool to help advertisers to generate several versions of their advertisements.<\/p>\n

Google CEO Sundar Pichai is so convinced about the AI revolution that he said that “AI will be the biggest technological shift we see in our lifetimes<\/a>” and spoke of Google pivoting to an “AI-first company.”<\/p>\n
