[00:00:00]interesting books, in fact, you know, a few that I have enjoyed in my journey with AI. So, one is Genius Makers. It has outstanding [music] history of the evolution of AI, all the key characters, some of whom we touched upon. Master Algorithm is a great book which goes in somewhat technical details about what are different approaches to AI, how does it work computationally, mathematically.

[00:00:20]Superintelligence by Nick Bostrom is [music] a great thought-provoking book.

[00:00:24]It really lays down both the potentials as well as potential pitfalls from this superhuman AI which we may see in our lifetime. The book by Fei-Fei Li, Worlds I See, it's a great, you know, memoir come history of AI tour. I immensely enjoyed reading that book. And then somewhat technical book, Why Machines Think, recently came out. It goes into the technical details, but still fairly accessible for people who are interested in really understanding how these elements are working.
