π Comment: Iβve always admired Fei-Fei Li as a researcher and I aspire to be like her. I am inspired by her story which was told beautifully in this book and love to see how her curiosity led her to pursue AI eventually. She faced all her struggles with a strong mind and willpower, which is very motivating to me.

π Comment: I decided to pick up this book after the my friends recommended the Netflix series to me. There are many complex yet interesting concepts in this book that were described well. It is very science-heavy which might not be for everyone, but it appeals to me since I studied particle physics for my undergraduate.
