In this episode, our two heroes explore the realm of artificial intelligence, paying special attention to deep learning (hoping that some

of the stuff may rub on them :-). In this first part of a three-part mini-series the chaps discuss the foundation including networks, neurons

and other topics of advanced black magic, carefully avoiding the temptations of introducing too much maths (we'll leave this to the Grumpy Old Coders :-).
