Don't bother

If you know enough about AI to be looking for a book on it, you won't learn any more here. Poorly written, repetitive, trite. Does not describe how AI works and provides almost no concrete examples of applications; rather making general statements like "AI has the potential to revolutionize healthcare by making processing of patient data more efficient." "AI raises ethical concerns but these can be mitigated with strong ethics policies." Oh really? Like what? No examples provided. "Convolutional neural networks work by passing data through a convolutional layer." What is a convolutional layer? We never find out. Etc. Give this one a miss.

Great book

I’m a little bias but I think it’s a great primer on the subject which Kamala says AI stands for Artificial Intelkigence….

Great Book!

Super informative and interesting. The book is put together well and the flow is easy to follow.

A lot of fluff and repeats too much

Every chapter beginning and ending almost sounds like it is copy and pasted. The author literally restates the same thing regarding concerns of bias, ethicals , etc, over and over. We get it, you’re concerned that AI could implement social biases from the past causing future bias. Say it once and MOVE ON. I purchased this audible book to learn something about the process of how AI operates. Aside from a few short paragraphs here and there the entire book is just literally stating the same thing over and over again. It should be titled, “Ethical concerns regarding implementation of AI”. The first and last Erik Lawrence book I buy. I couldn’t even finish the book out of shear frustration. Synopsis: repetitive fluff, minimal substance, too much droning about ethics and social concerns.
