Artificial Intelligence: A Beginner’s Step-by-Step Guide
When I was little, my parents told me stories of how they had to physically walk to a store, look through a huge catalog, ask if it was available, and finally hope it would be of decent quality to enjoy – all to watch a single movie.And I thought, “Wait. So, you’re telling me that you couldn’t just log into Netflix, see what movies they’ve recommended to you based on one’s you’ve liked in the past, and enjoy the whole thing within the click of a button? Then I thought, well exactly how is it that Netflix is able to magically know what I’ll like?”
So, I started to do some research – and little did I realize that at that moment, I stepped into a new realm.
I soon realized that it’s not just Netflix that has these so called “magical abilities”.
Look around you. A GPS – how can it predict our arrival time to such precision, accounting for all traffic, stops, and accidents, well before we even get on the road?
How does Spotify recommend the perfect songs specifically for us without fail?
Ever noticed how Google comes up with millions of search results catered exactly for us within the blink of an eye?
These are things that we take for granted – they’re just another part of life, right? But if you take a step back and ask: “How?”, do you know the answer?
Well, it’s two magical words:
ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is everywhere and is a part of the fabric we’re growing in today. Whether we like it or not, and whether we believe in AI or not, AI is here to stay, and it’s a must that we understand and embrace AI.
As I began dwelling deeper into this subject, I soon became fascinated with the field. My fears of evil robots taking over the world one day faded away when I knew that the more I learn about AI, the more I can influence how AI helps us in the future.
I believe that AI must be learnt by all, and from early on. This is not something you learn later in life, perhaps in a job. This is something you must embrace growing up.
Towards this goal, I started an AI club at my school and seeing the success and how it benefited students, I started a YouTube channel. Within a span of few months, the channel grew to over 6,500 subscribers world-wide, spanning 75+ countries. The outpouring of over 3500 comments on the channel on how the channel has benefited the community was uplifting.
Drawing inspiration from this, I felt that I could share my learnings and break down AI into easy-to-understand steps that you can benefit from.
AI is growing at a rapid pace. It’s estimated that AI will grow to a market size of $360+ billion by 2028. The opportunities that this fascinating field presents is tremendous. Whether you’re looking to upskill yourself, or pursue a career in AI, learning the basics is a must.
And hence this journey with this book.
I hope you enjoy and learn in the process!
