About this listen
"Artificial Intelligence, deep learning, machine learning - whatever you're doing if you don't understand it - learn it. Because otherwise you're going to be a dinosaur within three years." (Mark Cuban)
“The development of full artificial intelligence could spell the end of the human race.... It would take off on its own, and re-design itself at an ever increasing rate. Humans, who are limited by slow biological evolution, couldn't compete, and would be superseded.” (Stephen Hawking)
Discover and learn all about machine learning in this book. You will understand and learn more about machine learning with the proper frameworks to solve problems.

Wouldn’t you want to find out the types of real-life problems that are solved by various machine learning models?
Machine learning usage has been looming around us yet most of us are still uninformed about its applications and how it can improve daily life.
"Machine learning is about taking the data that anyone might have - whether it's a sports franchise or an industrial manufacturer - and using algorithms to actually reason over the data and to predict outcomes that a businessperson can use to make better decisions.” (Christopher Matthews)

On May 31, 2014, in the Milwaukee suburb of Waukesha, Wisconsin, two 12-year-old girls attempted to stab their classmate to death. Morgan Geyser and Anissa Weier’s violence was extreme, but what seemed even more frightening was that they committed their crime under the influence of a figure born by the internet: the so-called “Slenderman”. Yet the even more urgent aspect of the story, that the children involved suffered from undiagnosed mental illnesses, often went overlooked in coverage of the case.

The grid is an accident of history and of culture, in no way intrinsic to how we produce, deliver and consume electrical power. Yet this is the system the United States ended up with, a jerry-built structure now so rickety and near collapse that a strong wind or a hot day can bring it to a grinding halt. The grid is now under threat from a new source: renewable and variable energy, which puts stress on its logics as much as its components.

Story
Nikola Tesla was a major contributor to the electrical revolution that transformed daily life at the turn of the 20th century. His inventions, patents, and theoretical work formed the basis of modern AC electricity, and contributed to the development of radio and television. Like his competitor Thomas Edison, Tesla was one of America's first celebrity scientists, enjoying the company of New York high society and dazzling the likes of Mark Twain with his electrical demonstrations. An astute self-promoter and gifted showman, he cultivated a public image of the eccentric genius.

In Glow Kids, Dr. Nicholas Kardaras will examine how technology - more specifically, age-inappropriate screen tech, with all of its glowing ubiquity - has profoundly affected the brains of an entire generation. Brain imaging research is showing that stimulating glowing screens are as dopaminergic (dopamine activating) to the brain’s pleasure center as sex. And a growing mountain of clinical research correlates screen tech with disorders like ADHD, addiction, anxiety, depression, increased aggression, and even psychosis.

In April 1956, a refitted oil tanker carried 58 shipping containers from Newark to Houston. From that modest beginning, container shipping developed into a huge industry that made the boom in global trade possible. The Box tells the dramatic story of the container's creation, the decade of struggle before it was widely adopted, and the sweeping economic consequences of the sharp fall in transportation costs that containerization brought about.

Story
Run a Google search for “black girls” - what will you find? “Big Booty” and other sexually explicit terms are likely to come up as top search terms. But, if you type in “white girls”, the results are radically different. The suggested porn sites and un-moderated discussions about “why black women are so sassy” or “why black women are so angry” presents a disturbing portrait of black womanhood in modern society. In Algorithms of Oppression, Safiya Umoja Noble challenges the idea that search engines like Google offer an equal playing field for all forms of ideas, identities, and activities.

Perfect for beginners
This audiobook is a great guide for anyone who is curious about machine learning just like me,but has no idea where to start. I imagine there are a lot of people who tried to google and
got frustrated and gave up wishing someone would just give them a high-level explanation about this ML. That’s why when my sister referred this book, without hesitations, i grabbed it right away..

Fun and easy!!!
I find this in-depth audiobook enjoyable to listen to even though there are many buzzwords and complex lessons. It’s because of the simplified way the author has incorporated and the integration of real-world examples. The variety of machine-learning models introduced makes machine learning fun and easier.

Amazing Audiobook!
I bought this audiobook with the sole purpose to learn about the Machine learning and its recent hype. This book has visual diagrams to simplify the complexity of the topic. I had also bought a high cost book from the famous author only to feel that it’s too much overwhelming for me. Even those high-valued books had similar mistakes and minor errors. This book gave me all the necessary details needed to get started and also introduced me to Python programming with no extra cost. This book is a complete package for anyone interested in learning ML with practical examples and projects.

This is easy to understand
This is a very insightful audiobook and of great help not only to those people who don’t have any idea but also to those people who are just started to take baby steps in the field of machine learning. Having this will surely feed you information about Machine Learning. It’s truly interesting and I like how the author explained and delivered the topic very well and i liked also how it is narrated with a very clear voice. I recommend this and the author did a great job.

I enjoyed this audiobook
As what i understand from this book, Machine Learning is an incredibly powerful tool. I believed in the coming years, it promises to help solve some of our most pressing problems, as well as open up whole new worlds of opportunity. This audiobook covered much of the basic theory underlying the field of Machine Learning. I really enjoyed listening since the narrator has a very good voice and his explanation were easy to catch up. I totally recommend this to my friends.

Thanks for introduction to ML in such a low level manner because you made it very easy to understand for a beginner like me.. I super appreciate this. Thumbs up for both the author and narrator.
