According to contributors at IBM, artificial intelligence (AI) is a technology that allows computers and machines to mimic human learning, understanding, problem-solving, decision-making, creativity, and autonomy. Generative AI, a subset of artificial intelligence, takes things further by creating original text, images, videos, and other content.

Deep Learning: Layered neural networks that "weight" certain categories; you can see these at work in facial recognition systems, which use different analysis categories.
Hallucination: When generative AI produces wrong responses to a prompt or query. This could involve mixing true and false statements; misstating a detail; making entirely false claims and fabricating information.
Large language model (LLM): an AI model that has been trained on large amounts of text so that it can understand language and generate human-like text. They function by guessing the next word in a sequence of words (somewhat like an auto-complete tool).
