Understand AI
enough to ship.
Plain-English chapters for PMs, founders, business leaders, and marketers. Highlight any sentence you don't understand — get an explanation right there, in context.
Large language models don't retrieve facts from a database — they predict the next token from patterns in training data.
Training data = labeled examples the model learns from — like thousands of flashcards with the right answer on the back.
