My goal is to share as much as possible through an affordable, simple, and straightforward language, valuable knowledge that helps you understanding complex topics related to technologies such as Machine Learning, Deep Learning, Analytics, and Autonomous Vehicles, among others. It is a satisfying adventure, I must say. Every day I receive considerably positive feedback, lots of article views, lots of likes, retweets, and more on my social networks and not less, some indications as a top writer, invitations to collaborate in some prestigious online publications. All this is truly motivating. I believe that life is complicated enough, so I consider that every time someone tries to simplify concepts and knowledge useful to humanity, this can be regarded as an essential contribution to inclusiveness and equity in the world. So, this is my mission. This book is not intended to exhaust all the learning needs of those wishing to enter the AI world. It is a starting point composed of some "scattered notes" that will help you put together some valuable pieces of technology's great mosaic.

They also will give you some pointers on how to go beyond the first step in search of much more. Just as Dante suggested: "You were not meant to live as ugly, but to seek virtue and knowledge."
