Learn AI

without wasting time

Books

These are true treasures. Have them in mind when you need serious answers, because tutorials are nothing more than handbooks (and often, bad ones)

MATHEMATICS FOR MACHINE LEARNING

Every basic Math, Geometry, and Statistics knowledge you will need to deeply understand how Machine Learning works

Artificial Intelligence: A Modern Approach, Global Edition

An excellent book studying AI (not only Machine Learning). From agents to reinforcement learning, from basic classifiers to Neural Networks.

Deep Learning (Adaptive Computation and Machine Learning series)

The masterpiece for Deep Learning

Pattern Recognition and Machine Learning (Information Science and Statistics)

Bayesian view of machine learning with probabilistic graphical models, approximate inference (variational Bayes, EP), and kernel methods. A classic for understanding ML as probabilistic modeling.

Transformers for Natural Language Processing

Practitioner-oriented deep dive into the transformer architecture, BERT-like encoders, GPT-style decoders, Hugging Face ecosystem, and applications such as machine translation, summarization, and GPT-3/ChatGPT-style generation.

Foundations of Large Language Models

focuses specifically on the theory and fundamentals of pre-training, generative models, prompting, and alignment.
