Top 10 AI books for beginners

Brockman's deep engagement with many of the leading scientists who have worked on artificial intelligence, from Alison Gopnik and David Deutsch to Frank Wilczek and Stephen Wolfram, makes Possible Minds an ideal introduction to the landscape of crucial issues AI raises. Some of these figures, including computer scientist Stuart Russell, Skype founder Jaan Tallinn, and physicist Max Tegmark, are deeply concerned with the threat of AI, including the existential one, while others, such as robotics entrepreneur Rodney Brooks, philosopher Daniel Dennett, and bestselling author Steven Pinker, have very different views. Possible Minds lays out the intellectual landscape of one of our time's most important issues in a serious, searching and authoritative manner.
