​
Fast-forward to 2006, and Geoffrey Hinton (University of Toronto) revolutionized the landscape by inventing fast-learning algorithms, coining the term "Deep Learning" to elucidate how AI, based on machine learning, could mimic human learning. Notably, the concept of deep learning predates this milestone.
​
The introduction of Generative AI, exemplified by ChatGPT, has recently propelled us into a new phase, underscoring the transformative potential of artificial intelligence. This juncture marks an exciting moment in the evolution of AI.
