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.

On The Process, we work through the experiences we're having on the journey to our best lives. Each episode we dig into a different topic - love, sex, money, life changes - with a mission to uncover the things that threaten to diminish our joy, and to discover the things that will help us magnify it. From time to time, we conduct interviews with people (other makers and creators) whose work and lives inspire us to reflect on radical - more sustainable - ways of being in the world. We want to know about your process. We want to talk with people who are forging their own path, making their own way, and living in their own dream. If you'd like to be a guest on the process, send us an email at asktheprocess@gmail.com.

This week on The Process, we dig deep into authenticity, unpacking the dangers of its absence and the power of its presence. We explore how we were taught (read: trained) to minimize our truths, and how we might begin to unlearn those lessons. We get clear on what authenticity means to us, and how it demands that we investigate our own needs and desires such that we can share them with others. The road to authenticity isn’t an easy one, but the journey is (of course) worth it. Give it a listen and let us know what you think.
