1. The five differences

02

1.1 Inputs and outputs

The most obvious difference is what goes in and what comes out.

1.2 Determinism

At inference time, with a fixed model and pipeline, classical ML is much more reproducible than generative AI: given the same input it usually produces the same output and behaves stably.…
