Own a device? Then know these 15 AI terms or get left behind.
No fluff. No handholding. Just the essential language of AI—because if you’re not speaking it, you’re already behind.
Machine learning (ML)
The brains behind AI. Feeds on data. Learns patterns. Gets smarter.
Large Language Model (LLM)
What you’re reading right now. Predict text, crafts content, thinks in tokens.
Neural Network
Inspired by brains. Wired like circuits. Power most smart systems today.
Prompt Engineering
Modern sorcery. You ask smarter, AI answers sharper.
Training Data
AI’s origin story. What it’s fed shapes what it becomes.
Inference
The moment AI makes its move. Fast. Calculated. Contextual.
Token
A chunk of text AI reads. Not magic, just math.
NLP (Natural Language Processing)
The reason AI can understand you—and respond like it means it.
Bias
Built-in baggage. What happens when flawed data creates flawed “intelligence.”
AGI (Artificial General Intelligence)
AI that rivals human thinking. Not here yet—but creeping closer.
Open-Source AI
Transparent, tweakable, dangerous, in the wrong hands.
Model Fine-Tuning
Customizing AI to your tone, your tasks, your vide.
Ethical AI
Can you trust your machine? Big question. Creates sharper output.
Retraining
Teaching AI new tricks. Overwrites bad habits. Creates sharper output.
Hallucination
When AI makes stuff up—and says it with confidence.
Why it matters: If you’re building, investing, scrolling, writing, selling—or just existing with a device—you’re already on the arena. Know the language. Own the edge.
