🧠 AI Word of the Day: "Zero-shot Learning"

Zero-shot learning is when an AI model performs a task without being specifically trained on it - just by understanding instructions or using its general knowledge.

Example:
You ask: "Summarize this legal contract."
Even if the model wasn’t trained on legal summaries, it can still do it - thanks to zero-shot learning.
