Subtitled "30 Essential Questions and Answers on Machine Learning and AI", this book was born out of questions often fielded by author Sebastian Raschka, who takes a direct, no-nonsense approach to make advanced topics more accessible and genuinely engaging. Each brief, self-contained chapter journeys through a fundamental question in AI, unraveling it with clear explanations, diagrams, and hands-on exercises.
