The First Step

Creator of The CRAIT ProjectWell, I finally did it. I finally decided to start working on my own AI textbook.
For those who don't know, this has been years in the making. I started developing educational materials for teaching artificial intelligence in 2017, eventually building out an entire curriculum for high school students that was used in summer programs across North America between 2017 and 2019. But even after receiving positive feedback from hundreds of students and dozens of CS professors, I was still unsure of the quality of my curriculum. There were far too many things about it that I felt had missed the mark or could have been improved upon, but I was constrained by my limited time and energy while working on too many other things at once.
