Easy Introduction Book to the World of AI

By DrSalonen | June 15, 2024

I like the books from DK Publisher. They are very different from many potentially “dry” books on AI, which include only lots of text but no illustrations. The AI field is moving so fast that, at least, what concerns me is that there are so many things one must remember that some of the previous…

Do you have the grit to succeed in your objectives and goals?

Coders – a reflection of Silicon Valley and Engineers

By DrSalonen | May 25, 2024

I admit. I have always been fascinated by “coders,” “programmers,” or whatever you call individuals who build software solutions. Heck, I took my wife to Silicon Valley as part of our honeymoon.
