CGI

cgi
Noun

In the context of cinema and gaming, this term refers to the visual assets created digitally. It often carries a connotation of artificiality; while "stunning cgi" is a compliment, "bad cgi" suggests a lack of realism or an "uncanny valley" effect where the imagery feels unsettlingly fake.

In a technical web development context, the term refers to a specific legacy protocol. It is used almost exclusively in professional IT or historical discussions about the early internet, as modern frameworks have largely replaced the need for standalone scripts of this type.
