'herstellen' and 'generieren' both mean that something is produced or created. 'herstellen' is more general and fits well with concrete products, for example food, clothing, or technical parts. It can also be used for connections or states. 'generieren' sounds more technical or business-oriented. It is often used with data, codes, signals, revenue, or attention. The words can be confused because both mean 'to produce/create'. Usually, the more natural choice is: a factory 'stellt etwas her' (produces something), a program 'generiert Daten' (generates data), and an action 'generiert Interesse' (generates interest).
