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.

S03E12: B-Sides- "Pesto"(2020 Year in Reflection) 43:37

4 years ago43:37

43:37

On the last Day Ones of 2020, we do our best to reflect on what felt like the the longest year of our lives. We try to parse through the pandemic, racial justice uprisings, and election to find any lessons or reflections that can help with processing their contributions to the year. Then, we comb through our personal realizations from the year and end up discussing how badly celebrities fucked up, the ways that we surprised ourselves, and take on the difficult task of figuring out what would be useful to take from 2020, into 2021. We appreciate you rocking with us this year, and as usual you can always catch any past episodes on our feed. Feel free to give us a rating and share our show with a friend. Happy New Year! @storytellertone @justinandthehonorednone…
