I loved this book for several reasons and would highly recommend it to anyone interested in some of the neuroscience behind how and why we learn the way that we do. It does discuss some of the mechanisms that align with AI and machine learning but that is not the focus of the text (despite what the title may have you believe). It sparked several different ideas and challenged a lot of misconceptions (Babies do have object permanence:https://www.devcogneuro.com/Publications/Diamond_MITchapter.pdf)
Most importantly it rekindled a passion that I have to education in the formative years (k-5) Regardless of if my life takes me in that direction at some point I do think that text like this should be a required reading for anyone who better wants to understand how and why we learn the way that we do.
I wouldn't say there is anything groundbreaking here but it definitely does a good job reinforcing several foundational pedagogical principles.
