My thanks go to my girlfriend, Vânia, for all her support; my newborn son, Dinis, who was very very upset with me for having to share my attention with the book writing process; and my father, who was always asking me, "Is it ready yet?" I would also like to thank my colleague, Paulo Adrião (communication designer and maker), in particular, for producing all the book photos and images; Pedro Figueiredo (AI lead developer and philosopher), for all his valuable input and the experiences he shared with me; and Tânia Rocha (a passionate frontend developer), for the input and help to develop the visual interfaces for the demos. Thanks to the Intel UK, Wyliodrin, and Muzzley teams for all the help with equipment, support, and troubleshooting.
