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.

The medals are flying in Paris as we take stock of an action packed first week of the Olympic Games! From the Opening Ceremony to the tennis to the swimming, we have it all covered for you right here! On today's episode, we discuss: 3:10 - We open with some general thoughts about the games and how we feel about the experience of watching so far. 8:10 - We turn quickly to the medal count, tracking how Team USA is doing compared to our primary rivals, and share how we feel about America's performance so far. 14:10 - Turning our attention to the pool, we discuss the dominant day by France swimmer Leon Marchand and also look at the highlights from Katie Ledecky in her signature event. 24:00 - Going from the pool to the gym, we recap the amazing team gold by USA women's gymnastic and their catalyst, Simone Biles. We also look at the men's gymnastics team, and their newly coronated superstar Stephen Nedoroscik. 34:30 - Up next, we close the final chapter on the saga of the Seine, where athletes actually did swim in the bacteria infested water. Is this a signature Paris failing, or did they finally turn it into a success? 41:30 - In many ways, the career of Rafael Nadal seems to be over. He lost in singles to his fiercest rival, Novak Djokovic, and the fan favorite "Nadalcaraz" doubles team also crashed out. Is this the end? We also briefly discuss Coco Gauff and her dramatic singles loss. 53:30 - Almost before the games got underway, scandal was already present. That's because Team Canada women's soccer were discovered to be using spy drones to surveil their opponent's practices. They faced severe punishment. We also briefly look at the USWNT and how thing are going for the favorites for gold. 59:00 - Finally, we recap the Opening Ceremony, which featured one of the greatest images in Olympics history (hats off to you, LeBron), and also one of the worst and most controversial images we've ever seen.
