How AI Works: From Sorcery to Science -- Ronald T. Kneusel, Paperback
AI isn't magic. How AI Works demystifies the explosion of artificial intelligence by explaining--without a single mathematical equation--what happened, when it happened, why it happened, how it happened, and what AI is actually doing "under the hood." Artificial intelligence is everywhere--from self-driving cars, to image generation from text, to the unexpected power of language systems like ChatGPT--yet few people seem to know how it all really works. How AI Works unravels the mysteries of artificial intelligence, without the complex math and unnecessary jargon. You'll learn:
- The relationship between artificial intelligence, machine learning, and deep learning
- The history behind AI and why the artificial intelligence revolution is happening now
- How decades of work in symbolic AI failed and opened the door for the emergence of neural networks
- What neural networks are, how they are trained, and why all the wonder of modern AI boils down to a simple, repeated unit that knows how to multiply input numbers to produce an output number.
- The implications of large language models, like ChatGPT and Bard, on our society--nothing will be the same again
