Artificial Intelligence

A good book to understand broadly about AI for people of non-AI or CS backgrounds like me. It explains simply about the different algorithms behind its different applications, be it language processing & translation , captioning image, games. Also it tells the story of how these were developed- the basic idea and how they have been improved continuously.Most importantly for me, helped me understand deeply than what's told by media, generally AI hype.

Excellent book for beginners. It can be a good gift for young students.

gives a decent overview of the work done in A.I. It was written before ChatGPT release, hence some discussions/predictions might feel outdated.

This book provides a clear and insightful perspective on the true capabilities of AI, cutting through the hype created by AI companies. It offers a well-balanced analysis, helping readers distinguish between exaggerated claims and the real potential of AI technology.

As an AI newbie, this book really shed light on a lot of things I had a vague idea on. The AI journey which began decades ago is presented nicely. Must read for AI enthusiasts. Thanks Melanie.

I am a book-lover, and have a great love for those books that make a unique contribution in the lives of readers. Here are my observations*** The book gives an impression that it will teach the ABC of AI but it fails*** This is just a so-so book on AI*** It fails to present the subject in a simple or chronological way

Amazing Book to Read about the AI and its factual narrative without getting into much hype.The author has such and engaging style that it feels like an unputdownable Novel!Buy and Enjoy!
