together to explore Artificial Intelligence (AI) and the way it
is transforming human society-and what this technology means
for us all.

"An AI learned to win chess by making moves human grand masters
had never conceived. Another AI discovered a new antibiotic by
analyzing molecular properties human scientists did not
understand. Now, AI-powered jets are defeating experienced
human pilots in simulated dogfights. AI is coming online in

fields and, in so doing, transforming how humans are
experiencing reality.

Allegedly, the best book for AI comes from Norbert Wiener, and it's
related to cybernetics. The true ones.

Also, I would add SICP as a Scheme/CS course, Calculus from Spivak and
the book Goedel/Escher/Bach. If you read these you'll understand better
how information rises from "inert" matter.
