My Top Picks for Exploring Artificial Intelligence

Over the years, I've been asked to share resources on Artificial Intelligence for various interests within the field. In response, I've compiled a curated list of AI materials, which I update periodically. This collection not only serves others, but Python has emerged as the go-to programming language for AI development due to its simplicity and robust libraries. If you're new to programming and eager to delve into AI, it's essential to start with Python. also acts as a personal reference, helping me quickly locate specific books or articles when needed.
