Awesome AI books

This is a list of books about or related to Artificial Intelligence.

Note: With a few notable exceptions, this is a list of non-fiction books about AI and related topics. If you are looking for technical books or reference materials related to AI development (or data science more generally), I recommend you take a look at the following lists made by other users (both of which I have found to be very useful): Artificial Intelligence and Data Science
