3 good resources for humans who want to learn more about machine learning

If you're a child of the '80s like me, you might recognize this famous line from the movie WarGames. This innocent-sounding question comes not from one of the movie's human stars, but from a military super-computer named Joshua, after a bored high school student, played by Matthew Broderick, accesses the computer's hard drive. Thinking he's hacked into a video game company, Broderick's character accepts Joshua's challenge and chooses the most intriguing game he can find: global thermonuclear war. Joshua is an intelligent computer programmed to learn through simulations like the one Broderick's character initiates. And because the computer actually does control the arsenal of U.S. nuclear weapons, it's a "game" that puts the planet on the brink of World War III.
