SAJS/SAMPLE PAPER-2/2024-25/IX-AI 6
 In unsupervised learning, the model is trained on unlabeled data, where the output is not
provided. The model tries to find hidden patterns, structures, or relationships within the
data without explicit supervision.

18. Leena is using Generative AI for the first time in her project and is exploring its pros and (4)
cons. What are two merits and two demerits of using Generative AI in Meera’s project?
Merits:
Creativity and Innovation: Generative AI can produce original content like text, images,
and designs, which helps Meera explore new ideas and enhance the creativity of her
project.
Automation and Efficiency: It automates repetitive tasks, allowing Meera to save time on
content generation and focus on other aspects of her project.
Demerits:
Quality Control: The generated content may not always meet the expected quality or
relevance, requiring manual adjustments or refinement.
Dependence on Data: Generative AI relies heavily on the quality and quantity of the
training data. If the data is biased or insufficient, the AI’s output may be flawed or
misleading.
19. Can you list down a few applications in your smartphone that widely make use of (4)
machine learning?
Voice Assistants (Siri, Google Assistant, Alexa)
These voice assistants use ML algorithms for speech recognition, natural language
processing (NLP), and context understanding to respond to user queries and perform tasks.

Camera and Image Enhancement (Google Photos, iPhone Camera)

ML is used for facial recognition, object detection, automatic scene adjustments, and
image enhancement to improve photo quality.
20. How will you differentiate between Training Data and Testing Data? (4)

Training data is used to teach the machine learning model. It helps the model learn
patterns, relationships, and structures within the data, so it can make predictions or
decisions based on new, unseen data.

Role: It is used to train the model by feeding it into the algorithm, which then adjusts its
internal parameters to minimize errors.

SAJS/SAMPLE PAPER-2/2024-25/IX-AI 7
 Testing data is used to evaluate the performance of the trained model. It is not used in the
training process but is instead reserved to test how well the model generalizes to new,
unseen data.

Role: It serves as a measure of the accuracy, precision, recall, and other performance
metrics of the model. The testing data helps check if the model is overfitting or
underfitting the training data.
21. What are Data Security and Privacy? How are they related to AI? (4)

Data Security refers to the practice of protecting data from unauthorized access,
modification, destruction, or theft. It involves implementing measures such as encryption,
access controls, and secure networks to ensure that data is kept safe from cyberattacks,
breaches, and other malicious activities.
Privacy refers to an individual's right to control their personal data and how it is used. It
focuses on ensuring that personal information is collected, processed, and stored in a way
that respects individuals' rights and complies with laws and regulations like GDPR
(General Data Protection Regulation).
