I absolutely loved Vulkan Essentials! It completely changed my perspective on programming. At first I wasn't sure about Programming, but by chapter 3 I was completely hooked. The way the author explains ai is so clear and relatable - it's like they're talking directly to you. I've already recommended this to all my friends who are interested in ai. What I appreciated most was how the book made simulation feel so accessible. I'll definitely be rereading this one - there's so much to take in!
