Review: An excellent and eminently readable introduction to AI. A must for anyone interested in the future of technology. - There is always talk in engineering circles of 'the next big thing', i.e. the next technology that will change our lives. AI has promised this in the past but hasn't quite managed it - yet. This book gives an excellent overview of AI, it's history, current technologies that we use very day that have a hint of AI about them, and a look forward to how AI might develop and change our lives in the future. Most importantly it looks at the challenges we will face in making AI work for us rather than against us. The author has taken a subject which, let's face it, could have been turgid and dry and made it eminently interesting, thought-provoking and readable. Explanations of technical ideas such as exponential growth are very well done and will help the lay person to grasp the ideas as well as a more technical reader. AI may not be the next big thing but this books shows that it will certainly be a very big thing one day. Anyone interested in the future of technology should read this.
Review: Interesting book - This is useful. I did funnily an article on fentanyl smuggling using human interviews in 2020 and it seemed my findings turned up better than those who used AI but such is the change and development always good to keep up with change!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An excellent and eminently readable introduction to AI. A must for anyone interested in the future of technology.
*by P***E on 27 March 2016*

There is always talk in engineering circles of 'the next big thing', i.e. the next technology that will change our lives. AI has promised this in the past but hasn't quite managed it - yet.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Interesting book
*by J***E on 15 June 2024*

This is useful. I did funnily an article on fentanyl smuggling using human interviews in 2020 and it seemed my findings turned up better than those who used AI but such is the change and development always good to keep up with change!

### ⭐⭐⭐ Nice summary of current thoughts around AI
*by T***M on 18 September 2017*

Good read, easy to access also for readers with little or no prior knowledge of the topic. I rated it three stars as the writers adds little incremental thoughts to the debate, most of the arguments used in the book are directly taken or inspired by other people that think and write about AI.
