この電子書籍について

Artificial Intelligence Made Simple is a detailed, practical guide to Understanding Artificial Intelligence for Non-Programmers for readers who want a clear path from understanding the topic to using it confidently in real situations. The book is designed as a structured learning companion rather than a shallow overview: it introduces the core ideas, explains why they matter, then develops them through realistic examples, guided practice, scenario-based explanations, and common mistakes to avoid. Readers are taken step by step from foundational concepts into everyday applications, with each chapter building on the previous one so the material feels progressive, usable, and easy to revisit. The main areas of focus include What AI Actually Is, The Seven Myths That Block Beginners, Three Families of AI: Machine Learning, Deep Learning, and Generative AI, How AI Learns: Inside the Training Process, AI in Your Pocket: Recommendations, Voice, and Vision, How a Chatbot Works: From Prompt to Response, Talking to AI: The Art of the Prompt, Your First 20 Prompts: Guided Practice, When AI Gets It Wrong: Diagnosing Bad Answers, The Verification Habit: A Framework for Checking AI, giving the book a concrete learning arc that moves from orientation and confidence-building to applied communication, problem solving, and independent practice. The writing style is direct, supportive, and accessible, making the book suitable for self-study, classroom reinforcement, professional development, or personal improvement. It emphasizes practical understanding over abstract theory, so readers can immediately connect the lessons to conversations, decisions, habits, and challenges they are likely to face outside the page. By the end of the book, readers should have not only a stronger grasp of the subject, but also a collection of repeatable strategies, useful language patterns, mental models, and practical routines they can continue applying after they finish reading.

著者について

Frank Carrasco is a technology educator and author who has spent his career helping non-programmers make sense of artificial intelligence. For more than fifteen years he has designed training programs, written plain-language guides, and led workshops for professionals in education, healthcare, small business, and government — audiences with one thing in common: no background in software and no patience for jargon.

Frank began his career in software documentation and technical training, where he learned that the hardest part of any new technology is not the machine but the vocabulary we use to describe it. That conviction runs through everything he writes. He believes AI should be explained with the same clarity we apply to a spreadsheet or a microwave, and that understanding a tool is the first step to using it wisely.

He has trained thousands of professionals to adopt AI tools responsibly, from teachers building lesson plans to nurses summarizing patient notes to small-business owners automating routine paperwork. He is a regular speaker at conferences and community events, and he is especially proud of the workshops he has led for libraries and adult education programs, where curiosity is the only requirement for admission.

*Artificial Intelligence Made Simple* is his first book, and it grew directly out of those workshops. It is written for everyone who has ever nodded along while someone discussed "machine learning" and quietly wished they could ask a follow-up question.

Frank lives with his family and, when he is not writing or teaching, can usually be found testing new AI tools, renovating an older house one room at a time, or losing track of an afternoon in a good library. He welcomes questions from readers and is available for workshops and speaking engagements; you can reach him through his author page on LinkedIn.
