- About the author
Overview
The book tells the fascinating story of the great mathematical ideas, developed over the centuries, that form the foundation of modern artificial intelligence.
The author aims to answer a crucial question: how–and above all, why–does the heart of AI work? How do these powerful mathematical ideas interact with each other to give rise to machines capable of learning, predicting, and thinking?
Through a narrative that alternates between history and mathematics, Alessandrini reveals how great minds of the past, such as Cardano, Descartes, Newton, Bayes, Grassmann, and Levi-Civita, laid the theoretical foundations of modern AI.
