AI: First Lines
The Sketch Underneath the Intelligence Era
Athichai Kotub Ounkomol
Artificial intelligence is everywhere. Understanding it starts with the first lines.
AI: First Lines traces how the technology came to be, from mainframes to the transformer models behind today’s tools, and explains in plain language what changed when computers moved from following instructions to forming judgments under uncertainty. It then examines what that shift means for individuals, companies, and countries that now have to decide how to live with it.
