Though it is an academic book, Artificial Intelligence: A Modern Approach by Stuart Russell and Peter Norvig.
The first chapter in the book provides a detailed analysis of how other disciplines contribute to the idea of AI - from Philosophy to Psychology, Biology to Computer Science. Makes for an interesting read, even for a non-tech reader.
- iamlucaswolf 10y agoThis. If you're also looking for a course that goes alongside the book, I highly recommend UC Berkley's CS188 (you can find it at http://ai.berkeley.edu http://ai.berkeley.edu). The lecturer Pieter Abbeel does such a good job explaining stuff and the programming exercises are really neat. Edit: Formatting
- flor1s 10y agoThe course is also quite easy to follow without buying the book. I love the exercises in which you are programming an intelligent agent to move through a maze. It reminded me of how we learned programming in university using Karel The Robot. This alongside Andrew Ng's Machine Learning course was my first exposure to the field. https://www.coursera.org/learn/machine-learning https://www.coursera.org/learn/machine-learning I can also recommend Sebastian Thrun's Artificial Ingelligence for Robotics course: https://www.udacity.com/course/artificial-intelligence-for-robotics--cs373 https://www.udacity.com/course/artificial-intelligence-for-r...

- danielam 10y agoI wouldn't exaggerate the "detailed analysis" here. For example, I found the philosophical parts quite weak and superficial.
