Klappentext

Free PDF and epub formats plus online reader with AI assistant.

AI is transforming the world faster than we could have imagined. But how did we get here? AI guru Ilya Sutskever made the bold claim that most of what you need to know about modern AI is captured in 30 seminal research papers on deep learning.

What did Ilya see? Read through this book and you'll uncover the breakthroughs, ideas, and mental models that shaped his vision and much more, all clearly explained and interpreted by veteran author and teacher Richard Heimann .

You'll discover:

• The technical breakthroughs that have shaped AI strategy, safety, and cultural shifts
• How to decode landmark AI papers---from AlexNet to Transformers
• Engineering patterns and design choices that scale from research to real-world systems
• Evaluating the strengths and limits of deep learning without falling for hype or cynicism
• Applying Sutskever's mental models to forecast and navigate future AI trends

OpenAI co-founder Ilya Sutskever is one of the most important figures in modern deep learning. Along with developing the GPT models, he is the originator of the famous "Sutskever's List"---a reading list of 30 research papers that cover "90% of what matters" in AI. In Sutskever's List , AI expert Richard Heimann dives into each of these influential and vitally-important papers, revealing the breakthroughs that shaped Ilya's thinking and the entire AI field.
