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 math that powers 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.

This week we talk about a whole bunch of stuff, unfortunately we had some technical difficulties so our discussion on Ghost of Tsushima's new co-op Legends move didn't make it in and our introduction to talking about Call of Duty Black Ops: Cold War Zombies starts a bit...abrupt. Sorry about that! Hey, it's been a whole bunch of episodes since something wonky like this happens, we promise we'll make it up to you next week *nervous shrug*. We talk about Need For Speed Most Wanted's new remaster, Peter Parker's new makeover, Cyberpunk 2077 going gold and Miguel does a round of "Buy It At Launch Or Not". I dunno, he put us on the spot, we didn't really have a name for it. Enjoy! --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/psbestfriends/message…
