Every AI you have ever used began as nonsense. Before it could answer a question, pass a medical exam, or fold a protein, it was a machine that had never seen a word, guessing at random and wrong almost every time. This book is the story of how that nonsense gets trained into something that reads, reasons, and now and then fools the people who built it. It is machine learning with the machinery left out and the meaning left in. You have read the headlines. A model "thinks." A model "understands." A model is coming for your job by Tuesday. And somewhere between the press releases and the ...
