about the book
In this book, the primary goal is to provide a comprehensive understanding of both the capabilities and limitations of artificial intelligence. We’ll explore a diverse range of AI techniques, spanning from expert systems to deep learning, and emphasize the distinctions between AI and human cognition. Insights drawn from real-world AI projects not only question the notion of machines taking over the majority of human jobs but also underscore the implausibility of the technological singularity concept. Ethical considerations, including issues like bias and privacy, will be addressed. Drawing on three decades of experience in applying AI to mission-critical applications, I outline the characteristics that define the next generation of AI platforms.
