About This Book:
Ever had AI mistake you for a jewel thief or got trapped in a self-driving car on an unwanted sightseeing spree?
Welcome to Artificial Stupelligence, the laugh-out-loud guide to the brilliance—and blunders—of AI. From fraud detectors gone rogue to chatbots spiraling into existential crisis, Lynn Raebsamen pulls back the digital curtain to reveal the truth (and hilarity) behind the headlines—offering undeniable proof that humanity isn’t doomed… yet.
This isn’t your typical AI 101 textbook. Forget dry, jargon-filled lectures—this is AI explained through belly laughs and “aha” moments. With fun metaphors and speculative glimpses into AI’s future, you’ll get a deep dive into machine learning, large language models, natural language processing, and other AI essentials—without crashing your system.
If you enjoyed the witty scientific explorations in Randall Munroe’s “What If?”, you’ll love this book’s humorous deep dive into the world of AI, where we answer equally intriguing questions about our silicon-brained overlords-to-be.
