Deep neural networks are at the heart of artificial intelligence, ranging from pattern recognition to large language and reasoning models like ChatGPT. The principle: during a training phase, the parameters of the network’s artificial neurons are optimized in such a way that they can carry out specific tasks, such as autonomously discovering objects or characteristic features in images.Deep neural networks are at the heart of artificial intelligence, ranging from pattern recognition to large language and reasoning models like ChatGPT.

When ChatGPT or Gemini give what seems to be an expert response to your burning questions, you may not realize how much information it relies on to give that reply. Like other popular generative artificial intelligence (AI) models, these chatbots rely on backbone systems called foundation models that train on billions, or even trillions, of data points.When ChatGPT or Gemini give what seems to be an expert response to your burning questions, you may not realize how much information it relies on to give that reply.

Over the past years, computer scientists have introduced increasingly sophisticated generative AI models that can produce personalized content following specific inputs or instructions. While image generation models are now widely used, many of them are unpredictable and precisely controlling the images they create remains a challenge.Over the past years, computer scientists have introduced increasingly sophisticated generative AI models that can produce personalized content following specific inputs or instructions.
