October 28, 2014. Oulu, Finland. Samsung Galaxy Trend Plus.

In the University of Oulu library "Tellus". They had bunch of fascinating books on computer science. Including books that I *thought* were obsolete. I was less amused when I recently refound this image, because nowadays, 99% of current AI hype is running on #Python, which is just less flawed iteration of #BASIC. (...also please don't lob rocks at me, I love Python. Also have fond memories of BASIC.)

A person holds a book titled "Artificial Intelligence in BASIC" by Mike James. The cover features a green circuit-patterned egg with a bright starburst. Bookshelves in the background. (Yes, this caption was made by AI, and I'll present it unedited, because it just happens to be accurate. I usually have to edit these a lot.)
