💡WebSim AI

WebSim AI is an artificial intelligence tool designed to simulate and create web pages based on user input. In the video, it is used to generate a website for a 'Galactic Pet Shop,' allowing users to explore and interact with the content. The tool is central to the video's theme of creating and customizing web experiences.

💡Simulation

In the context of the video, simulation refers to the process of generating a web page or content using WebSim AI. The user types in a description or a URL, and the AI creates a version of the web page imagined by the model. This concept is crucial for understanding the video's demonstration of creating a dynamic and interactive website.

💡Gallery

A gallery in this video script refers to a collection of web pages or images, specifically a collection of pets from various parts of the universe in the 'Galactic Pet Shop.'
