This "Ask INDIA'' series allows individuals to pose and receive answers to queries. The expert employees of INDIAai will respond to your inquiries.

Questions should be sent to askindiaai@mail.nasscom.in.

What is AI modelling? What is the most advanced AI model at present? - Sundaram Pillai, Nagerkoil.

AI modelling is the process of making, training and using machine learning algorithms that mimic logical decision-making based on the data provided. AI models are the basis for more advanced intelligence methods like real-time analytics, predictive analytics, and enhanced analytics.

ChatGPT-4 is currently regarded as the most advanced AI model. This release has generated great anticipation and exhilaration, as it is the most advanced and potent AI to date. It is based on the Generative Pre-trained Transformer 4 (GPT-4) language model, the most recent iteration of the GPT language model series.

What is prompt engineering in AI? What skills do you need for prompt engineering? - V Niranjan, Bengaluru.

Prompt engineering is an AI concept in natural language processing (NLP). Instead of being given implicitly, the description of the work that the AI is expected to do is contained in the input, e.g. as a question in prompt engineering. Prompt engineering typically works by converting one or more tasks to a prompt-based dataset and then training a language model with "prompt-based learning" or simply "prompt learning."

A good "Prompt Engineer" must have excellent problem-solving and analytical skills and a thorough understanding of AI, natural language processing, machine learning, and the generation of AI-generated content.

What is the benefit of generative AI? Who are the major players in generative AI? - Usma Nahid, Secunderabad

Based on past customer interactions and data, generative AI can produce rapid, personalised customer communications. The technology could also help you qualify leads and respond more swiftly to common customer questions. 

Microsoft, Google, and Amazon Web Services are investing in generative AI ventures and technology. Microsoft, for instance, is one of the largest investors in OpenAI. Numerous of these businesses are also developing generative AI tools and operations. IBM (US), META (US), Adobe (US), and Insilico Medicine (Hong Kong) are also significant participants in the generative AI market.

What does AI music do? How are AI songs made? - James Kuruvila, Delhi.

AI is used to analyse music and its unique properties, discover patterns and make personalised music recommendations based on them. As a result, AI and machine learning have long since transformed the music industry.

AI composes music by regurgitating what it has been educated to listen to in enormous song databases, which is similar to how human-composed pop music is recombined from earlier influences.

How is AI smarter than humans? Can it read human minds? - Anushka Roy, Kolkata.

AI has more incredible memories than humans, can swiftly acquire knowledge from multiple digital sources, can work continuously without needing to sleep, does not make arithmetic errors, and is better at multitasking and thinking several steps ahead.

It is now possible for AI to read people's minds. For example, researchers in Osaka, Japan, showed patients photographs before asking them to think about them while connected to an fMRI scanner. After that, an AI image diffusion software drew what they were thinking.

Is C++ better than Python for AI? On the other hand, is it challenging to do AI with Python?

C++ is the best platform for embedded systems and robotics. In contrast, Python is supported for high-level tasks such as training neural networks and importing data that can only be performed on specific platforms. Python has been used for the majority of AI advancements in recent years, leading to the assumption that it is the best option.

If you intend to pursue machine learning, you should begin with these fundamental mathematical concepts and then progress on to the coding aspects. Many AI-related programming languages, such as Python, are considered relatively simple.
