(These two books will give you a strong foundation.)
As someone who helps professionals navigate AI in healthcare, I’m often asked:
“What books should I read to better understand AI?”
Here are two that stand out:
1. How Smart Machines Think – Sean Gerrish
This book breaks down how AI and machine learning power the technology we use every day.
It covers:
🔹 How Netflix recommends content using AI
🔹 How self-driving cars make split-second decisions
🔹 How AI beats humans in complex games like Go and poker
But what makes this book special?
It doesn’t just highlight AI’s successes—it explores the trial-and-error process, ethical concerns, and real-world limitations of building intelligent systems.
2. ChatGPT and the Future of AI – Terrence J. Sejnowski
If you want to understand the rise of AI-powered language models, this book is a must-read.
It explains:
🔹 How AI like ChatGPT is transforming communication and creativity
🔹 The science behind large language models
🔹 The ethical concerns around bias, misinformation, and data privacy
Sejnowski also dives into AI’s future impact—on education, business, and even human intelligence.
These two books offer a solid foundation in AI’s capabilities, challenges, and future trajectory—critical for any leader navigating AI applications today.
