商品描述

The Games that Computers (and Humans) Play is a non-technical introduction to AI using games to illustrate the concepts, written by an internationally known researcher in Artificial Intelligence.

Games and puzzles (one-person games) are a microcosm of the real world. In this book they are used to illustrate the underlying technologies behind popular commercial AI products. The secrets of the computer's successes are revealed, and they are often counter-intuitive. Many of the methods used sound dumb and no human would ever mimic the computer's approach, yet it is hard to argue with success. With your new-found understanding of how AI enables computers to achieve super-human performance at games, the book gives the reader intuitive insight into how this transformative technology is going to revolutionize our world.

With easily understandable descriptions, this book is an ideal introduction for the non-scientist and anyone interested in how games have shaped the history and development of Artificial Intelligence.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

電腦(和人類)所玩的遊戲》是一本非技術性的人工智慧入門書籍,透過遊戲來說明概念,作者是一位國際知名的人工智慧研究者。

遊戲和謎題(單人遊戲)是現實世界的縮影。在這本書中,它們被用來說明流行商業人工智慧產品背後的基本技術。電腦成功的秘密被揭示出來,這些秘密往往是反直覺的。許多使用的方法聽起來很愚蠢,沒有任何人會模仿電腦的做法,但成功的事實卻難以辯駁。透過對人工智慧如何使電腦在遊戲中達到超人表現的新理解,這本書為讀者提供了直觀的見解,讓人明白這項變革性技術將如何徹底改變我們的世界。

這本書以易於理解的描述,對於非科學家以及任何對遊戲如何塑造人工智慧的歷史和發展感興趣的人來說,都是理想的入門書籍。
