Causal AI (Manning)
Wednesday, 01 October 2025

How do you know what might have happened, had you done things differently? I this book, Robert Osazuwa Ness gives insights on how to make predictions and control outcomes based on causal relationships instead of pure correlation, so you can make precise and timely interventions. Ness' clear, code-first approach explains essential details of causal machine learning that are hidden in academic papers, and provides a practical introduction to building AI models that can reason about causality.
