The Master Algorithm: How the Quest for the Ultimate Learning Machine Will Remake Our World

<div><b>A thought-provoking and wide-ranging exploration of machine learning and the race to build computer intelligences as flexible as our own</b></div><div><br></div><div>In the world's top research labs and universities, the race is on to invent the ultimate learning algorithm: one capable of discovering any knowledge from data, and doing anything we want, before we even ask. In <i>The Master Algorithm</i>, Pedro Domingos lifts the veil to give us a peek inside the learning machines that power Google, Amazon, and your smartphone. He assembles a blueprint for the future universal learner--the Master Algorithm--and discusses what it will mean for business, science, and society. If data-ism is today's philosophy, this book is its bible.<br></div>
