I have a high interest in technology and related topics but find it hard to wrap my head around a lot of it. So I am looking for books that are all about the basics and are designed for the extreme novice.

I know “technology” is a very broad term, but honestly, anything will probably pique my interest as long as it’s easily digestible. That being said, some specific things I would like to be a bit more educated on would be; AI, robotics, future/emerging technologies, our current internet landscape and speculations on its’ future, etc.
