Moving away from the more conceptual books listed, The Hundred-Page Machine Learning Book provides a concise and practical look at the most fundamental questions in ML. In this book, Interpretable Machine Learning Researcher and Ph.D, Christoph Molnar focuses on ML's biggest issue with adoption: that these systems seldom explain their inner-workings meaning a great deal of a machine's processes are hidden within a black box.

Over the past two years, we've seen the release of many books that provide deep insights about the fundamental concepts, technical process, and applications of artificial intelligence. This list highlights books authored by renowned computer scientists and practitioners who are entrenched in the AI industry. No matter you are a researcher, an engineer, or a business professional in the AI/ML domain, your are bound to find a few interesting books to add to your reading list this year! In this book, professors at New York University Gary Marcus and Ernest Davis explain the technological and theoretical gap between creating successful AI which is constrained to a fixed set of rules (or a fixed environment), and creating successful AI which can effectively interact with the complexities and intricacies of an open world. This book is for researchers and entrepreneurs who want to make practical predictions on the immediate future of AI. Gary Marcus is a Professor of Psychology and Neural Science and CEO of Robust.AI, and Ernest Davis is a Professor of Computer Science.
