# Semantic conventions for generative AI systems **Status**: [Development][DocumentStatus] > [!Warning] > The semantic conventions for GenAI and LLM are currently in development. > We encourage instrumentation libraries and telemetry consumers developers to > use the conventions in limited non-critical workloads and share the feedback Semantic conventions for Generative AI operations are defined for the following signals: * [Events](gen-ai-events.md): Semantic Conventions for Generative AI inputs and outputs - *events*. * [Metrics](gen-ai-metrics.md): Semantic Conventions for Generative AI operations - *metrics*. * [Model spans](gen-ai-spans.md): Semantic Conventions for Generative AI model operations - *spans*. * [Agent spans](gen-ai-agent-spans.md): Semantic Conventions for Generative AI agent operations - *spans*. Technology specific semantic conventions are defined for the following GenAI system: * [Azure AI Inference](./azure-ai-inference.md): Semantic Conventions for Azure AI Inference. * [OpenAI](./openai.md): Semantic Conventions for OpenAI.
