Who this book is for:
This book is for aspiring solutions architects looking to design and implement AI/ML solutions on Google Cloud. Although this book is suitable for both beginners and experienced practitioners, basic knowledge of Python and ML concepts is required. The book focuses on how AI/ML is used in the real world on Google Cloud. It briefly covers the basics at the beginning to establish a baseline for you, but it does not go into depth on the underlying mathematical concepts that are readily available in academic material.
