Artificial Intelligence (AI) is transforming the world — from voice assistants and self-driving cars to medical diagnosis and smart recommendations. But one of the most fascinating and fast-growing areas of AI is Generative AI — technology that doesn’t just analyze information, but creates new content. AI-generated | © abhinavity What Is Generative AI? Generative AI is a branch of artificial intelligence that can generate new content — text, images, music, video, and more — by learning patterns from existing data. Unlike traditional AI models that classify or detect (e.g., is this a cat or a dog?"), generative models produce new outputs — like drawing a completely new cat that never existed. It’s called generative because it generates, rather than just processes. How Does It Work? Generative AI uses advanced machine learning techniques, especially neural networks, to understand patterns in large datasets. Two of the most common methods are: - Generative Adversarial Networks (GAN...

If you’ve ever written code in languages like C, C++, or Java, you’ve probably used a compiler — even if you didn’t realize it. But what exactly does a compiler do? Let’s break it down in simple terms. AI-generated | © abhinavity What Is a Compiler? A compiler is a special program that translates your code (written in a programming language like C++) into machine code — the low-level instructions that a computer can actually run. Think of it like a translator: - You write code in human-readable form (like English) - The compiler turns it into binary (1s and 0s) that your computer understands Why Do We Need a Compiler? Computers don’t understand high-level programming languages directly. They only understand machine language. So, without a compiler, your code would be useless to the computer. The compiler acts as a bridge between you (the programmer) and the computer. Steps a Compiler Takes A typical compiler follows these main steps: 1. Lexical Analysis   Breaks the ...

When you’re writing code, things change fast. You add features, fix bugs, try new ideas — and sometimes you break things. That’s why programmers use something called version control to manage changes safely. One of the most popular tools for this is Git. AI-generated | © abhinavity What Is Version Control? Version control is a system that records changes to files over time so you can: - Go back to earlier versions   - Track who made what changes   - Work with others without overwriting each other’s code Think of it like a “save history” for your code. Why Is Version Control Important? Without version control: - You might lose your previous code   - You can't undo mistakes easily   - Teamwork becomes confusing   - Testing new ideas is risky With version control: - You can experiment safely   - Collaborate without conflicts   - See exactly what changed and why What Is Git? Git is a free, open-source versi...

If you've ever used Google Maps inside another app, or logged into a website using your Gmail account, you've already used an API — even if you didn’t know it. Let’s break down what an API is, in simple terms. AI-generated | © abhinavity What Does API Stand For? API means Application Programming Interface. It’s a way for two different programs to talk to each other and share information or functionality. Think of it like a waiter in a restaurant: - You (the app) ask for food. - The waiter (API) takes your request to the kitchen (server). - The kitchen prepares it. - The waiter brings it back to you. The API is the middleman between your app and some other service. Why Are APIs Important in Programming? APIs let developers: -  Reuse existing services instead of building from scratch   - Connect different systems or apps easily   - Access features securely (like payment systems or databases) Instead of writing your own weather app, you can just connect to a weath...

Self-driving cars, also known as autonomous vehicles (AVs), represent one of the most revolutionary shifts in transportation technology. Once a concept of science fiction, these vehicles are now a reality on roads across the world, thanks to rapid advancements in artificial intelligence, machine learning, and sensor technology. AI-generated | © abhinavity What Are Self-Driving Cars? Self-driving cars are vehicles capable of navigating and operating without human input. They rely on a combination of hardware (such as sensors, cameras, radar, and LiDAR) and software (AI algorithms, real-time mapping, and data processing) to perceive their environment, make decisions, and drive safely. Levels of Autonomy The Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) defines six levels of driving automation, from Level 0 (no automation) to Level 5 (full automation): - Level 1–2: Driver assistance and partial automation (e.g., lane-keeping, adaptive cruise control) - Level 3: Conditional automation — the car ca...
