Issue 15: Replicate Part II
Neural Networks, Visual Playground, and LoRa's

🧠 AI Term of The Week: 🌐 Neural Networks
Definition:
A computing model inspired by the human brain, with interconnected nodes that process data in layers. Neural networks are how machines “learn” to create.
They’re made up of layers of nodes (aka neurons) that pass signals to one another — just like the neurons in our brains. These layers help AI detect patterns, make decisions, and generate everything from text to images to sound.
As a creator, every time you use AI to generate visuals, voice, or motion — a neural network is likely behind the scenes doing the heavy lifting.
Example:
A neural network identifies handwritten numbers by analyzing pixel patterns.
