Question

Description acceptable. Over 100 implementations of a strategy for this task are surveyed in a 2024 paper by Gao et al. that categorizes them as Naive, Advanced, or Modular. Novel embeddings of query-specific documents are indexed and used in the “retrieval-augmented” form of this task. This task is performed by applying Brownian noise to points in a latent space and then decoding in diffusion models. A game-theoretic (-5[1])agent improves at this task while competing against a discriminator in a type of “adversarial” neural network. This task names a framework consisting of unsupervised “pre-training” followed by supervised “fine-tuning.” Nonsensical outputs during this task are called “hallucinations.” (10[1])For 10 points, what task names a form of AI commonly used to produce text and images that is the “G” in GPT? ■END■ (10[1])

ANSWER: generation [or word forms such as generate; accept text generation or image generation; accept generative artificial intelligence or generative AI or generative pre-trained transformer or generative adversarial network or retrieval-augmented generation; accept descriptions such as computer-produced text or equivalents]
