AI Glossary

The AI terms that
actually matter.

Clear, technical definitions of 39 key concepts — written by AI engineers, not marketers.

AI Techniques

Agent Skills

Agent Skills are modular, self-contained packages of instructions, code, and resources that AI agents can discover and load on demand — extending an agent's capabilities without retraining the underlying model.

Agentic AI

Agentic AI refers to AI systems that autonomously pursue goals by planning multi-step actions, calling external tools, and adapting based on outcomes — with minimal human intervention at each step.

AI Techniques

Chain-of-Thought Prompting

Chain-of-Thought (CoT) prompting is a technique that instructs a language model to externalise its reasoning as a sequence of intermediate steps before producing a final answer, dramatically improving accuracy on arithmetic, logic, and multi-step tasks.

AI Models

DeepSeek V4

DeepSeek V4 is an open-source Mixture-of-Experts model family released in April 2026, with the flagship V4-Pro reaching 1.6 trillion total parameters and matching closed-source frontier models on coding and reasoning benchmarks at a fraction of the inference cost.

AI Models

dGSLM (Dialogue Generative Spoken Language Model)

dGSLM is a full-duplex generative spoken language model that uses a Siamese dual-encoder architecture with cross-attention to model both sides of a spoken dialogue simultaneously, without any text in the loop.

AI Techniques

Embeddings

Embeddings are dense numerical vectors that represent the meaning of text, images, or other data in a high-dimensional space — where items that are semantically similar end up geometrically close together, enabling AI systems to measure meaning rather than just match keywords.

Language Models

Gemma 4

Gemma 4 is Google DeepMind's fourth-generation family of open-weight multimodal AI models, spanning four sizes (E2B, E4B, 26B MoE, 31B Dense), built from the same research as Gemini 3 and designed for advanced reasoning, agentic workflows, and on-device deployment.

Generative AI (Gen AI)

Generative AI is a branch of artificial intelligence that creates new content or data patterns mimicking human-like creativity, based on learned information from existing datasets.

GraphRAG

GraphRAG is an advanced retrieval technique that builds a knowledge graph from source documents — extracting entities, relationships, and community summaries — then uses that graph structure to answer complex, multi-hop questions that traditional vector-search RAG cannot handle well.
