  • This book's topic has relevance shelf life of about a month.

    Any book on AI is out of date before it gets to the reader. I am interested in writing about AI for a young reader who will live a life dominated by it. This topic will change every aspect of society over the next several decades. So I value this book because it is outdated. That is no fault of Ebay. If I am lucky, I hope to create a new book that will be useful for about a month.
