In a scenario where artificial intelligence already influences everything — from online shopping to content consumption, including education, health, and culture — the book ‘Artificial Intelligence for Dummies… Like Me’ emerges as essential reading for those who want to stay updated without becoming a programmer.
With over 20 years of experience in education, communication, and technology, as well as several co-authored books, Professor Dr. Fernando Moreira has compiled all his experience in using artificial intelligence, consulting, and teaching to write this work, which is now available for pre-order on Amazon.
The book’s concept originated from the author’s real-life experiences with people who, like him, have felt intimidated by the complexity of the digital world. ‘It’s a book for those who thought AI was only for NASA engineers but now want to understand, use, and even have fun with it,’ he said.
With accessible, humorous language and packed with unusual analogies (like a squirrel astronaut and AI-powered cake recipes), the book invites everyday readers — especially those who still ‘struggle with autocorrect’ — to dive into the world of artificial intelligence without fear, complicated formulas, or losing the fun.
Aimed at laypeople, the curious, or even the tech-resistant, the publication is a true gateway to the conscious and practical use of AI in daily life. Fernando relies on clear explanations, humorous illustrations, practical challenges, and a ‘smart-dummy’ glossary to help readers avoid getting lost in acronyms and technical jargon that often push away those who most need to understand the subject.
‘It’s not a course, nor a mentorship, nor a miracle product. It’s a nudge for those who want to stop falling behind in this increasingly digital world,’ he says.
