Overview

What is Generative AI?

AI Summary

Generative AI refers to a category of artificial intelligence (AI) designed to create new content, such as text, images, audio, video and code. Also known as GenAI, it is often based on large language models (LLMs) or generative adversarial networks (GANs), learning patterns from vast datasets and using this understanding to generate original outputs. Generative AI is transforming industries by making tasks like content creation, code generation, and design synthesis easier, and automatically creating personalized experiences across domains such as media, healthcare, and software development.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can Arm-based chips run generative AI models?

Yes. Arm-based chips support generative AI models across cloud, edge, and mobile. Frameworks like PyTorch and TensorFlow are optimized for Arm, and Arm Kleidi Libraries further enhance model execution for vision and transformer-based workloads.

How do you deploy generative AI models on an Arm-based platform?

To deploy generative AI models on an Arm-based platform, start by selecting frameworks optimized for Arm, such as TensorFlow Lite, PyTorch, or ONNX Runtime. Use Arm developer tools like Arm Compute Library and the Arm Kleidi library to increase performance. These tools offer architecture-specific optimizations for vector processing (e.g., Arm Neon, SVE). For edge or mobile deployments, convert models to lightweight formats (e.g., TFLite) and test with Arm Mobile Studio or Streamline for profiling. Arm-based cloud instances, like AWS Graviton, also support scalable server-side deployment using containerized workloads or serverless architectures.
