    There is a very interesting section in the book, "On Research, Writing and Speaking", which includes gems like:

    “This sounds like hard work.” Yes. It’s no longer about being smart. By now, everyone around you is smart. In graduate school, it’s the hard workers who pull ahead.

    Unbelievable that this book is freely available! Thanks to the authors, publishers or whoever.

    The "Writing this book" section accidentally implies that LLM's were used for 2/3rds of the manuscript.

    I think they probably mean that LLM's just gave them a lot more to write about, but I think it would be a good idea to clarify.

    Can someone working in the field comment on how relevant the content still is? A lot of ML including CV seems (from the outside at least) to be completely disrupted by the developments of the last two years.

    Thanks for posting this.

    Is there a Computer Vision course based on this book? Any videos, etc? Thanks!

    Can anyone recommend a good book on Machine Vision? I believe the foundation of effective machine vision, and even computer vision, lies in selecting the right camera, optics, and lighting. High-quality images are essential because poor input leads to poor output.
