Large Language Models (LLMs)

Large language models are a type of AI designed to ‘understand’ & generate human language. They work by processing vast amounts of text, understanding the structure & meaning & learning from it. It ‘trained’ to identify meanings & relationships between words.

Extended Reality (XR)

All immersive technologies, such as augmented reality (AR), virtual reality (VR), and mixed reality (MR), are collectively referred to as "XR." These technologies aim to produce a simulated or improved world that consumers can experience realistically.

Quantum computing

Quantum computing is a new kind of computing that uses the strange rules of quantum physics to solve problems that are too complex for classical computing. In regular computers, the smallest unit of information is a bit, which can be either 0 or 1.

Natural Language Processing (NLP)

AI's subfield of natural language processing gives computers the ability to comprehend, decipher, & even create human language. To analyse & comprehend human discourse, it makes use of linguistic principles, statistical models & algorithms.

Internet of Things (IoT)

The billions of gadgets connected to the internet nowadays are referred to as the "Internet of Things." Connecting various gadgets to IoT enables them to connect with one another & operate autonomously.

Matter

Major tech firms including Apple, Google, Amazon, & the Zigbee Alliance have joined forces to develop the Matter protocol, formerly known as the "Connected Home over IP" (CHIP) project, in an effort to establish a new smart home standard.

Avatar

A computerised image of a real person, known as an avatar, is frequently used on chat & entertainment websites. They play a crucial role in the metaverse by representing a user's psychology & activities in virtual settings.

Telephoto lens / periscope lens

Telephoto & periscope lenses are frequently included in the camera part of a smartphone's specification sheet. There is a slight difference between the two, despite the fact that both let you optically zoom in on a scene or a single subject without losing information.

Regenerative braking

Regenerative braking, a type of braking system used in some vehicles, recovers some of the kinetic energy lost while braking & transforms it into electrical energy, which is used to partially recharge the battery.
