What is AI?
£7.99What is AI?
Everyone is talking about artificial intelligence – and we all have lots of questions. What exactly is it? Why is it such a big deal? Are there any risks? And how is it going to transform our lives? Award-winning author-illustrator Neal Layton is here to explain all there is to know about AI, from the early computers that could only solve sums to the AI programs of today that can recognise human speech and recommend TV shows – and what AI might be able to do in the future.

This entertaining non-fiction picture book, illustrated in Layton’s trademark zany collage style, is perfect for readers aged 6+ who are always asking how something works, and for parents wanting to help their kids make sense of a subject that everyone is talking about.
