Brooks' audiobook doesn’t just explain how to use AI—it shows how it truly works behind the scenes in today’s world. It dives into the roots, growth, and thinking patterns of AI in a way that’s easy to grasp. As I listened, I found myself connecting the dots between the history and the real-life tech we use now. With this new understanding, I’m less concerned about AI taking over and more curious about what it should be doing to help us.
