Book synopsis

Artificial intelligence is everywhere - in your phone, your inbox, your workplace and your news feed. But what is it really? How does it work? And where might it stop?

In Thinking Machines, Raphic Burdo offers a clear, jargon-free guide for anyone who is curious about AI. Without a single equation, in this book, you will discover:

• how machines learn from examples, and why they can be brilliant one moment and confidently wrong the next
• what today's chatbots and language models are actually doing when they "talk"
• where AI already shapes your daily life, often invisibly
• the real risks - bias, misinformation, privacy, security, jobs and the environment - and how to tell hype from reality
• the questions to ask of any AI system, at home, at work or at the ballot box

Packed with vivid stories, Myth vs Reality boxes, try-it-yourself activities, one-minute chapter recaps, a glossary and a timeline of milestones, Thinking Machines is your map to the most important technology of our time - and a reminder that the future of AI will be shaped not by machines, but by us.
