Many intelligences - teaching kids AI
The illustrated book, Many Intelligences, aims to make AI accessible to children.
Algorithm. Machine learning. Neural network. Singularity. These are the sorts of terms that make the idea of artificial intelligence tough to grok. But a new book by Matteo Loglio, cofounder of the product and interaction studio oio, aims to make AI accessible to children.
The cute children’s book for ages six and up—which Loglio both wrote and illustrated—walks through the gradient of human, animal, and robotic intelligence. It explains how thinking generally comes from brains but still exists in starfish and even plants (both of which lack gray matter).
