Gen AI creates new content (text, images, code) using foundation models: it generates, not just classifies.

Generative AI (Gen AI) is a subset of artificial intelligence focused on producing novel, high-quality output based on learned patterns. This is a critical distinction: it moves beyond traditional AI's classification or prediction tasks. The technology is powered by large-scale foundation models (FMs), often utilizing the transformer architecture, trained on massive datasets. Key examples include OpenAI's GPT-4 for text and code generation, and models like DALL-E for image synthesis. Enterprises leverage Gen AI to automate content creation, accelerate drug discovery, and enhance customer service via human-like conversational agents, driving significant productivity gains (McKinsey projects $2.6 to $4.4 trillion in value across industries).

Enterprises are increasingly focused on training and deploying Generation AI (Gen AI) models within their infrastructure. However, the conventional Kubernetes stack, while widely used, is not specifically optimized for the unique demands of the AI era, presenting several limitations. In response, dstack emerges as a new generation of infrastructure automation tailored to meet the challenges and opportunities of the AI era.
