// MODEL OPTIMIZATION AND PROMPT SYNTAX TERM
Diffusion Model
A Diffusion Model is a type of AI that generates images by starting with random noise and gradually refining it into a clear image, learning from many examples.
TECHNICAL DEFINITION
A Diffusion Model is a generative model that learns to reverse a gradual diffusion process, transforming random noise into coherent data samples (e.g., images) by iteratively denoising the input based on a learned probability distribution.
BACKGROUND
Prompt engineering is the process of structuring natural language inputs to produce specified outputs from a generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) model. Context engineering is the related area of software engineering that focuses on the management of non-prompt contexts supplied to the GenAI model, such as metadata, API tools, and tokens.
