Provide these models with any context, and they can adapt. It’s this versatility that makes them so powerful. It’s this versatility that makes them so applicable across industries. It’s this versatility that makes adaptation essential.
Daniel Kahneman outlines a concept which helps explains how these models work.9 He describes two types of thinking:
System 1: Fast, Instinctive, Emotional
System 2: Slow, Logical, Calculated
Today’s generative AI models excel at System 1 thinking. They can quickly generate responses based on patterns they’ve learnt, much like how you might instinctively react to a sudden noise or complete a familiar phrase. For this reason, they can produce human-like text or images almost instantly.
