Artificial Intelligence & Data
Machine Learning
Machine learning is how computers learn patterns from data instead of following written rules. Brian Christian's The Alignment Problem tells its story through the people building it: how systems learn from examples and rewards, why they pick up biases from their data and how researchers try to teach them human intentions and values. Rich in real examples and explained without technical jargon, it is an ideal introduction for non-specialists. More books will join this category; see Artificial Intelligence & Data.
