About this listen

Step into the future with AI.

The term artificial intelligence has been around since the 1950s, but a lot has changed since then. Today, AI is referenced in the news, books, movies, and TV shows, and the exact definition is often misinterpreted. Artificial Intelligence for Dummies provides a clear introduction to AI and how it's being used today.

In this audiobook, you'll get a clear overview of the technology, the common misconceptions surrounding it, and a fascinating look at its applications in everything from self-driving cars and drones to its contributions in the medical field.

  • Learn about what AI has contributed to society
  • Explore uses for AI in computer applications
  • Discover the limits of what AI can do
  • Find out about the history of AI

The world of AI is fascinating - and this hands-on guide makes it more accessible than ever!

I agree with previous comments:
-scattered: it goes in every direction by mixing AI with pretty much everything: space, economics, Internet…but also philosophy, cinema etc…to the point that it feels it needs to also describe each of these themes, which prevents it from going deep into the original topic of AI.
However, maybe the concept of AI itself is scattered by essence: it must be difficult to give a direction to the concept of intelligence.
-sometimes a bit boring somewhat, maybe due to the reader’s voice that sounds a bit like a 1930’s radio news anchor.

Hard to define AI, I guess…

This book may be short sighted about the possible future capabilities of ai. It was still enjoyable to listen to though.

I see the irony of an AI reading this, but the joke ruined the book. The monotone and repetitive voice made it impossible to concentrate on the book.

Terribly read

I liked the breadth and depth covered by the book. It was very informative.

The subject was covered very objectively.

I was expecting the book to teach me about AI.
Explain something complicated, but slowly.
Instead, it didn’t. Only a small percentage is about AI. Most of it is about humans.

But what about AI?

My first question would be to the audio production company. Exactly how long did it take you to find the world’s most boring reader? For an audio book that is the most important position. No amount of outstanding material and prose can make up for that.
But this book is far from outstanding. But I didn’t expect much. It is a “for dummies” book after all. Aimed at the public for increase sales. Only slightly higher bar than the “for idiots” series. Though in this case a better title would end with “by idiots”. But when you look up the authors, the primary author (John Paul) isn’t an expert at anything he just finds some poor soul and writes a book for them. But he is likely to blame for the repetitive material, the poor organization, and missing the checking factor stage since that is what he does. The other author has bounced around and claims to be a developer of machine learning. But developer is just code for someone who writes code- the blue collar employees in the industry. Not the brains behind it.
The book takes great liberty with including as forms of automation into the topic of AI. Which just can’t true. You do not need ai to build a controller as these two would have you believe. Their worst crime would be in trying to set off the third ai winter with their gloom and doom predictions. They totally miss what is really going on in the industry and in research labs throughout the world
I am so happy I did not contribute to their income

I like the fact that the information provided is up to date. I found the narrator tone annoying

The information provided.

Always good to get the basics and the facts even when you think you know more than what the book will present. This is a wide ranging foundation to science of artificial intelligence and worth the read. It was hard to listen to it for so many hours, but the variety of information was fun

Lot of dry information,.. seasoned with entering information.

Great author, and great narrator… Makes you fall in love with the subject, loved it and looking forward to more books on the subject…

Very easy to understand and a perfect Narrator

Good book for complete beginners and people that what to build a foundation of conceptual knowledge about the subject. Does not go into too much technical depth but gives a broad overview of the field.
