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 month Michelle discusses those pesky questions we ask ourselves when we are doubting our abilities. “Am I doing this the right way? Did I say the right thing?” Michelle explains the importance of not to let those insecurities get in your way and how to reask the questions to be more helpful. Michelle also interviews Briana Milton, a former college athlete, mother, counseling administrator and barre teacher. Together they share postnatal fitness experiences and the mental gymnastics it takes to get back to the barre. Briana explains how she brings movement into her counselling work and the reverse - how she slips in her counselling experience into her teaching method. Later Briana candidly shares her experiences with racism discrimination within the fitness industry and barre community more specifically.
