Discover why standard autoencoders can't generate realistic images and how Variational Autoencoders (VAEs) solve this with probabilistic encoding, the reparameterization trick, and latent space regularization. Learn how VAEs enable image generation, smooth interpolation, and organized latent representations, forming the backbone of modern generative AI.
