This is an excellent read if you are considering working with AI. There are several versions of AI available; all have their good points and their shortcomings. Microsoft, Google, and Facebook all have versions of AI, and X/Twitter has one, too. China has come out with two versions of AI, making the news lately, and there are several other versions of AI available.
The book gives you some of the basics, but you'll need to do more research to find out which version suits your needs best. Books on specific versions of AI seem to hit the bookstore just as a newer release of the software makes the news. Large companies are using AI to do everything from take orders and allow customers to file complaints.

Expected a bit more from the third addition. The book is informative, but struggles to find the stance between too much detail and largely overview. Because the book provides a lot of URL references, it would be better to have stable, lasting links.
