Comprehensive yet accessible. The artwork is a bit too illustrative for my personal taste and often lacks dynamics but it's still good. Read it if you want to understand AI / machine learning

I've been excited to read this for months and it didn't disappoint. I can relate to so many things here. Being a woman in your mid to late 30s, looking for a direction in life, not meeting societies expectations, finding something new that's terrifying but also giving you the best feeling, a rush of happiness but this new thing comes with hurdles in its own.

This is perfect (for me).
