Why This Book Was Written
AI is no longer science fiction. It is everywhere, often invisible. There is excitement. There is confusion. People are searching for clarity, not hype.
This book is written to make AI understandable and human. It is a narrative journey, not a textbook: easy to read, suitable for teenagers, parents, teachers, and professionals.
