Josh Starmer has done it again. The StatQuest Illustrated Guide to Neural Networks and AI is the perfect and much-needed follow-up to his foundational machine learning guide. This book retains the beloved, intuitive, and highly visual style that made the first one a runaway success, but takes a crucial step forward by integrating hands-on PyTorch coding examples. It masterfully demystifies the “magic” behind modern AIโfrom basic neural networks to the complex Transformer architectureโby pairing clear conceptual explanations with practical implementation.
