On the Trail of Artificial Intelligence: A Technical Novel (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781663258687)

This is a novel about Artificial Intelligence. As unusual as it sounds, there is a very good reason for its existence. There are existing books on the subject that are very good but are very difficult to read. It's that simple. The concepts are complicated and some require complex math. This book intended for enjoyment with some valuable information in-between. No math or previous knowledge is required; just sit back and read. Artificial Intelligence is here to stay this time. It's a third try to bring then the subject to the forefront. It is here for the future, and it is here to stay because the world needs it. We are in the midst of war, preparation for defense, a dismal economic outlook, crime, killing, and so forth. We need it because if we continue the way we are going, we won't be going anywhere for very long. Practically everything is disarray. Just name them: violence, shady politics, global warming, discrimination, abortion, women's birth problems, men's cancer. What is the solution? It is twofold. Equitably use the information we have and permit the human race to communicate and act in a reasonable manner. Through Artificial Intelligence, often referred to as AI, we have the key to managing our lives on a daily basis - worldwide. Instead of business and government leaders having to tell us what they are going to do, we can and will be addressing that subject through AI. AI is a systems concept, not a single piece of software you can buy at a local store. Can you imagine a kid telling you they have computers and AI, meaning software apps. So, here is what we are providing to you with in this book. A straightforward description of the subject of AI embedded in an easy-to-read novel. Even if you don't like AI, you will love the novel. The major characters are Matt Miller, who has a PhD from a prestigious university, his wife Ashley, also a professor, who is a dramatic woman with an ingenious mind, and General Les Miller, Matt's grandfather, who is a former a war-hero pilot and the founder of a very profitable business. Matt uses his mathematical thinking to solve complex problem, with the assistance of Ashley, and the leadership of the General. This time, we have a new person on the team. It is a Marine Corp officer who will delight you. The book is not expensive and something you would enjoy giving to a relative or friend. The book adheres to the author's principle of no sex, no violence, and no bad language. It is accessible to all readers. Post script: The book contains an AI index and two AI reports at the tail end. Now you can really enjoy it. There are also addendums and appendices. There is something for everyone. One more thing as Steve Jobs used to say: Parts 1 and 2 are about the characters that is a novel in its own right. If you only want AI, start with Part 3, chapter 12. Just an important note. The story about Bud Lewis, the Marine guy, is worth the time. This is the real end of the back cover..
