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.

EP 12 Principle #12 Education is a Science of Relations 17:05

منذ 5 أيام17:05

17:05

Have you ever wondered how to help your child truly love learning? In our latest podcast episode and Substack article, we dive into Charlotte Mason’s Principle #12: Education is a Science of Relations. Children are born with a natural desire to connect—with ideas, history, nature, art, and even the materials they use in their hands. Our role as parents and educators is not to force information upon them but to introduce them to a vast world of meaningful relationships. Whether it’s through books, tangible experiences, or friendships, a full and flourishing life comes from these rich connections. In this episode, we explore: How to cultivate a love for learning through real, living ideas. Practical ways to encourage deep engagement with knowledge. How to guide teenagers toward meaningful pursuits. The role of parents in fostering a broad and full education.

“Such a doctrine as e.g. the Herbartian, that the mind is a receptacle, lays the stress of education (the preparation of knowledge in enticing morsels duly ordered) upon the teacher. Children taught on this principle are in danger of receiving much teaching with little knowledge; and the teacher’s axiom is, ‘what a child learns matters less than how he learns it.” Read the article and get the reflection questions over on ⁠Substack ⁠ .

“Education is a life. That life is sustained on ideas. Ideas are of spiritual origin, and God has made us so that we get them chiefly as we convey them to one another, whether by word of mouth, written page, Scripture word, musical symphony; but we must sustain a child's inner life with ideas as we sustain his body with food.” Read the transcript and the reflection questions here .

On the wayside of the Appalachian Mountains sits a charming stone church, with a bell tower that no longer rings and a simple stained-glass window above the pulpit. The interior is warm, with chocolatey wood contrasting the stone walls. While the church is beautiful, it is the atmosphere of love and genuine welcome from the people that makes it truly special. When you attend, you’ll be greeted with smiles and care, and that warmth comes not just from the surroundings but from the hearts of the congregation...

EP 04 Principle #4 Limits to Our Authority as Parents and Educators 28:11

منذ 20 weeks28:11

28:11

This fourth principle builds upon the third which reminds us that we have authority over our children, and they have a duty to be teachable. So, the key to understanding the limits of our authority comes from humble reliance on God and walking in the ways of good living laid out in scriptures. Recognizing our own weaknesses and need for God’s help allows us to maintain a posture of sympathy for our children’s weaknesses which is the key to truly guiding and directing our children toward a good life. ⁠Read on Substack and go through the reflection questions⁠⁠ If you want to be effective with your Nature Study work, check out my ⁠⁠Nature Study Hacking Guides⁠⁠ .

EP 03 Principle #3 Parents are in charge and children should do as they're told 20:13

منذ 22 weeks20:13

20:13

In God’s wisdom He places children in… not daycare facilities, nor schools… He places them in families - the foundation of human society and the bedrock of human flourishing. The home is the best growing place for a child. It is here children learn good manners, right and wrong, and how to restrain the urge to wallop one’s brother. Parents are in charge. We didn’t come up with this. We know we are vastly under qualified to teach our children about the Righteousness of God, but someone must teach them and so the honor and duty falls on us. Because it is right. Read on Substack and go through the reflection questions⁠ If you want to be effective with your Nature Study work, check out my ⁠Nature Study Hacking Guides⁠ .

EP 02 Principle #2 Good and evil nature of children 31:50

This is the most controversial of Mason's Principles. Join me as we look at what this principle is telling us about the natural laws of education, namely that there is good and evil in the world and what that means for moms and teachers of children being raised in the 21st Century. Mason wants mothers to understand the natural laws that affect our children and hinder or help our work as mothers so that we will joyfully fulfill our God-given role to guide and direct our them.

There’s nothing more humbling than holding a freshly born babe complete with those glorious first cries and skin so soft it feels like you are touching heaven itself. Looking at that face for the first time, seeing those baby rolls, and thinking about all the possibilities ahead for this dear one make those dawning moments touch the divine and help us to come into contact with the miraculous nature of human life. Motherhood begins with many hopes, there are some fears, to be sure, but we get the privilege of standing at the beginning of a new story, a new life, a new person and walking them through their childhood, helping them journey into adulthood and finally, Lord willing, we launch them into adulthood where we fully pass off the governance of their lives to the man or woman who must stand on their own, ready or not.

Ep 00 A Masterly Mother's Homeschool Plan 27:12

منذ 28 weeks27:12

27:12

Welcome to Season #2 of the However Imperfectly Podcast. This season we will be diving into Charlotte Mason’s 20 Principles because they help us see our children and our goals for their education clearly. Getting to know these principles encourages us to move from mechanically implementing booklists, checklists, and systems to educate our children and toward being fully alive to our own duties given by God to help our families thrive. Modern homeschool advice is generally about how to save time and energy so that homeschooling can be easier through open-and-go curriculums. What we need are not more tips and tricks, but guardrails to help us realize our freedom and limits as teachers not so that our life can be easier by doing less, but that we will know where to spend our time and energy so that our work will be effective, fruitful, and joyful.

As summer beckons us with her long days, late nights, and leisurely ways, let’s pause to consider a few questions before it melts away and the new school year is before us. What is a person and how are they formed? How ought we spend our time this summer? How does this time form us? What do we owe to our children these summer days? What, before the Lord, should we consider before one day melts into the next with delicious rest and rejuvenation? Today we consider these questions and I also give links to the tools I use to keep our home humming for the summer months!
