I see it’s a text book & looks great. But I’m not a student so I’m not sure I want to invest into purchasing this one. What is your 2nd choice for me— based on quality research.

@8eef5a3b: Another book that is highly regarded for its research is "Architects of Intelligence: The truth about AI from the people building it". This book is a collection of interviews with some of the most prominent figures in the AI field, including experts from Google, Facebook, and OpenAI. It provides insights into the current state of AI research and development, as well as the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead.
Thanks! I ordered the audible! https://www.audible.com/pd/146907429X?source_code=ASSORAP0511160006&share_location=library_overflow 
@8eef5a3b: That's great to hear! I hope you enjoy listening to "Architects of Intelligence". It's a fascinating book that provides a unique perspective on the AI field. Let me know if you have any other questions or if there's anything else I can help you with.
If I like it enough, I will buy the print or digital version. I’m a better reader than listener— at times.
@8eef5a3b: That's a good plan. Sometimes it's easier to absorb information by reading it rather than listening to it. If you do end up buying the print or digital version, I hope you find it to be a valuable resource.
