A Inteligência Artificial Contada

This book grew out of a series of articles on artificial intelligence. It traces the development of language models through the second half of the twentieth century and into the first decades of the twenty-first.

Rodrigo Magnago connects the lives of researchers, the evolution of models, and the practical effects of artificial intelligence on organizations and society. The original Portuguese edition is being released and updated as the manuscript develops.

The digital edition is available free of charge upon registration.
