Confessions of an AI Brain, Second Edition invites readers to not only to understand how AI works, but to imagine, question, and actively shape the kind of AI‑enabled future they want to build. By framing AI as a narrator, the book ventures inside the mind of MIRANDA, a fictional yet technically grounded AI brain that narrates its own coming‑of‑age in a world saturated with algorithms, data, and digital infrastructure. Blending clear explanations with an engaging first-person voice, the book demystifies how modern AI systems are built, trained, deployed, and governed—without assuming any mathematical or programming background. Along the way, MIRANDA reflects on topics such as learning from data, bias and fairness, neurosymbolic reasoning, agentic AI, foundation models, digital twins, and the infrastructure that makes intelligent services possible.Rather than treating AI as a black box or distant threat, the narrative frames it as a partner in a shared human–machine ecosystem, exploring how artificial and biological minds co‑evolve at home, in industry, in cities, and in our creative lives. Through concrete examples — from baby steps in safe sandboxes and “data diets” to multi‑agent systems, climate‑aware optimization, and AI‑assisted art, music, and writing — the book shows how AI can be designed to support sustainability, inclusiveness, and human flourishing. Readers gain an intuitive grasp of core concepts like machine learning styles, attention and transformers, trustworthy and explainable AI, and the role of regulation and ethics, all framed through MIRANDA’s candid “confessions” about its capabilities and limitations.Aimed at curious general readers as well as professionals and students who want a concept-focused overview, Confessions of an AI Brain bridges technical insight and societal reflection in an accessible, story‑driven format. It is also a useful companion for engineers, business leaders, policymakers, creatives, and anyone adopting AI in their work and want to ask better questions about data quality, safety, bias, responsibility, and long‑term impact.
