The award-winning author of The Music of the Primes explores the future of creativity and how machine learning will disrupt, enrich, and transform our understanding of what it means to be human.Can a well-programmed machine do anything a human can—only better? Complex algorithms are buying our groceries, picking our partners, and driving our investments. They can navigate more data than a doctor or lawyer and act with greater precision. For many years we’ve taken solace in the notion that they can’t create. But now that algorithms can learn and adapt, does the future of creativity belong to machines too?It is hard to imagine a better guide to the bewildering world of artificial intelligence than Marcus du Sautoy, a celebrated Oxford mathematician whose work on symmetry in the ninth dimension has taken him to the vertiginous edge of mathematical understanding. In The Creativity Code he considers what machine learning means for the future of creativity. Programs like Deep Dream produce d

本書的主要目標是，大家一起來「不寫程式，而學AI」。例如不知Python而亦能用TensorFlow。 當今的AI是屬於機器學習(Machine Learning)的一支，基於神經網路( NN: Neural Network)的深度學習。現在，人人都想去理解AI電腦(即機器)到底是如何學習的，以便掌握AI技術熱潮，捷足先登，踏進這項當今的主流產業(AI人工智慧)。 然而，AI機器學習的演算法(Algorithm)又非常依賴於高等數學的運算式，包括線性、非線性函數、N維矩陣(Array)、張量(Tensor)、微分導數、梯度(Gradient)下降、梯度消失等大家很陌生的數學概念和術語。這些複雜性大大阻礙人人親近AI的機會和途徑。俗語說：「面對複雜，唯有簡單」。所以，尋覓和創造一個簡單、親切的途徑，讓人人都能享受，就能彌平進入AI的高大門檻了。Google推出的AI平台：TensorFlow。雖然它還不能完全實踐的美好境界，但可望它是一個不錯的起點了。於是，本書就將Excel試算表與TensorFlow結合起來，就能實現了。不懂程式設計而能學AI，好比不懂車而能學開車。在本書裡，筆者把與分離開來。於是大多數不諳編程技術者，皆能直接切入，而輕鬆愉快地學習AI了。
