ceoln reviewed You Look Like a Thing and I Love You by Janelle Shane
Review of 'You Look Like a Thing and I Love You' on 'Goodreads'
5 stars
Excellent funny non-technical intro to AI and its weirdnesses.
Anyone who already has some technical knowledge of AI probably won't find much new here in the way of math or specific algorithms, but they will still laugh at the descriptions of silly things that AIs have done when they were asked the wrong question or given imperfect data, or found a bug that let them speed across a simulation at light speed.
And as a good math-free introduction to some of the basic techniques of modern AI, and some of its features that as humans and citizens we might want to worry about, it's also good and quite accessible.
