Artificial intelligence is evolving at an unprecedented pace—what does that mean for the future of technology, venture capital, business, and even our understanding of ourselves? Award-winning journalist and writer Anil Ananthaswamy joins us for our latest episode to discuss his latest book Why Machines Learn: The Elegant Math Behind Modern AI . Anil helps us explore the journey and many breakthroughs that have propelled machine learning from simple perceptrons to the sophisticated algorithms shaping today’s AI revolution, powering GPT and other models. The discussion aims to demystify some of the underlying mathematical concepts that power modern machine learning, to help everyone grasp this technology impacting our lives–even if your last math class was in high school. Anil walks us through the power of scaling laws, the shift from training to inference optimization, and the debate among AI’s pioneers about the road to AGI—should we be concerned, or are we still missing key pieces of the puzzle? The conversation also delves into AI’s philosophical implications—could understanding how machines learn help us better understand ourselves? And what challenges remain before AI systems can truly operate with agency? If you enjoy this episode, please subscribe and leave us a review on your favorite podcast platform.

Join us for a heartfelt conversation that navigates the often stigmatized realm of homelessness. In this episode, we invite our listeners to explore the stories that humanize those who live on the streets. Jesse and Dee Dee share their personal encounters with homeless individuals and reflect on how these experiences shaped their understanding of compassion and community support. With engaging dialogues, we challenge the stereotypes that surround homelessness and delve into meaningful discussions about giving and receiving assistance.
Our journey leads us through reflective moments where acts of kindness like sharing meals or offering haircuts led to deeper connections. Listeners will discover how they can actively engage with homelessness in their communities, promoting dignity while nurturing humanity. This episode serves as a reminder of the power our small gestures hold in gifting warmth and hope. As we bridge personal experiences with broader societal narratives, we encourage you to re-examine your perceptions of homelessness and inspire positive change. Tune in, and don't forget to share your thoughts with us—together, we can cultivate a future built on empathy and understanding.
