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.

US Market Warnings – And What We Can Do About It 45:52

There is more and more commentators shouting from the roof-tops about the massive growth of North American stock values and earnings over the past few years (since Covid really). I’ll explore what is and isn’t really happening, and what one’s practical options are. Specifically, the following are the claims/alarms being flagged; US Tech stocks have gone so incredibly well for several years, these companies, and the US is now over-priced and make up larger proportions of Globally Market than they ‘should’. The future expected returns from S&P500 as a whole, so people ‘should’ now re-allocate to Europe, Emerging Markets and other locations, for future returns I hope it helps. Disclaimer…

What to Expect If Markets fall by 30% in 2025: A Retirement Asset Comparison 25:07

منذ 7 weeks25:07

25:07

Planning for, and subsequently living (!) a dignified and choice-filled retirement is the biggest financial goal many of us have, or will have. It’s also a journey of uncertainties, and one of the biggest uncertanties is market volatility, both positive and negative. We have experienced such positive market growth in the past 2 years in particular. So, in the interest of being prepared financially and mentally :), in this week's podcast I explore the impact of the stock market having an illustrative 30% decline in 2025. This is not a prediction of market mayhem this year, it's a premortem to allow us consider what it might mean for us, how we might or might not react, in order to deliver better outcomes for you. I hope it helps. Disclaimer…

In this week's podcast, the last for 2024 I talk about Tax Rates for Retirees in Ireland (2025). We spend a lot of time planning, analysing and accumulating retirement assets, often without clarity on the tax rates for retirees in Ireland! Time to start fixing that dear listener. Planning take-home retirement income requires careful consideration of tax bands, credits, and income sources. In 2025, singles and couples can benefit from expanded tax bands and additional credits from 2024, which can and will positively affect their take-home income I hope it helps Disclaimer…

Should I Stay Invested When Markets Are At All-Time Highs? 21:41

منذ 12 weeks21:41

21:41

In this week's podcast, I talk about should I stay invested when markets are at all time highs, is something many will rightly ask. And here is the data to show it; S&P 500 is at 6,090 right now (all-time high) Eurostoxx at 4,980 now (whisker under all-time high) Nasdaq at 19,859 now (all-time high) Large sections of the global equity universe are at or just below all-time highs. Does this mean there is a massive correction coming? Should I move to cash or some other low volatility asset class to protect my pot from a correction? Natural questions to ask. You probably know what my answer will be, but maybe don't know why it will be so. I hope it helps. Disclaimer…

Investment Options in Ireland & What It Says About You! 29:44

منذ 15 weeks29:44

In this week's podcast, I talk about investment options in Ireland. There are a bucket-load of investment options in Ireland. It is one of the biggest questions we see and hear from people. Yet, the landscape is fairly straight-forward once we get your head around it. Plus, the route someone will take with their investments is often not led by logic, but by their internal biases. The same occurs when one is choosing their next car to buy! Show me someone's car, and I'll tell you what kind of investments they have! So much so, I'll go on record as saying; "The type of car you drive is a lead indicator of the type of investments options you choose" -Paddy Delaney :) And to jump right-in, here is how I see the investment routes comparing to cars on the Irish roads!!..... Discretionary Investment Manager = BMW Life Insurance Investment Product = Volkswagen Advised Investment Platform = Honda Civic This week, having had time to do so, I share: The main investment options in Ireland (via personal & corporate investment and/or pensions) How they compare to the car you might (or might not) drive, and why....
