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
