A Great Read for Those New to Artificial Intelligence

We all know the importance of learning about artificial intelligence, but where do you start? This book is an easy to read and understand introduction that will give you a strong base in comprehending the developments in AI until today as well as a break down of the major players in the industry and some future use-case scenarios. While there is some inherent complexity to the technology itself, the author is skilled at breaking down complex concepts into an easy to read form.

Final note: Don’t be fooled by the title—the book is a lot more substantial than an 8 minute read! The 8-minute concept surrounds each of the chapters. Still, at a little over 100 pages, it is a fairly quick read.
