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.

The Content Continuum is not only the most accurate but also the most mutually-beneficial model for both company and customer.

In this episode, I chat with Hernan on The Business Bros Podcast to share my new model for modern marketers. Whereas a quick sale was the goal before, the new strategy is built to house and help as large an audience as possible while patiently escorting a portion forward at each threshold much like a dam operator might, to use an analogy. Brands running a Continuum put media at the core of their entire commercial structure, using it as a tool to guide, enrich, and progressively up-skill their community across every touch point. They recognize their audience moves unpredictably among the blurred stages in their curated ecosystem, and happily promote that flow.

The stages in the new continuum include: Discovery, Nurturing, Investment, Enrollment, Ascension, and Advocacy. I share more in my book, linked below.

Ep. #117: How to Grow CLTV, Drive MRR & Increase Retention 14:44

منذ 43 weeks14:44

14:44

I want to share three ways to enable monthly recurring revenue and three ways to grow customer lifetime value, regardless of your business model. There are essentially three ways to enable MRR: a full-fledged subscription or membership business; what I call a “perpetual performance-based” pseudo subscription option; or optional add-on recurring products that customers can buy after a one-time initiation. And there are three primary methods to grow CLTV once you do that. You can raise prices incrementally (the quickest but most risky), launch new products (enabling alternative purchase options), and speed up your retention point (the moment customers associate your business with an impulse/need/desire and continually come to you without even thinking). ↓ 𝗡𝗘𝗫𝗧 𝗦𝗧𝗘𝗣𝗦 ↓ =============== 📖 CONTENT CAPITALIST: https://t.ly/9_9JG =============== 🎓 eLearning Academy: https://t.ly/u0Dk5 =============== 🌐 Articles: https://michaelbecker.org/articles/ =============== Hosted on Acast.

In this episode, I break down eight essential marketing and growth principles for business success: Delay Gratification : Invest in building your audience, creating valuable content, and enhancing long-term brand equity over chasing vanity metrics or quick cash-outs. Give More Than You Get : Maximize consumer surplus to encourage word-of-mouth referrals and grow customer lifetime value (CLTV). Attention & Trust Compound Faster Than Revenue : Optimize for gaining attention and building trust, as these are invaluable in the digital economy. Love Your Customers : Genuine affection for your customers leads to business continuity. Aim to turn every customer into a raving brand advocate. Choose to Excel, Not to Compete : Focus on excellence in your offerings, making competition irrelevant. Irresistible Offers : Craft messaging and provide so much value that prospects find it impossible to say “no.” Embrace Micro-Content and Multimedia : Utilize platforms like podcasts, YouTube, and Shorts to capture attention in today's digital landscape. Identify and Fix Constraints : To scale, identify your weakest link—whether it's sales volume, CLTV, or retention—fix it, and then optimize the others. Tune in to learn how to implement these principles to drive long-term growth and success. ↓ 𝗡𝗘𝗫𝗧 𝗦𝗧𝗘𝗣𝗦 ↓ =============== 📖 CONTENT CAPITALIST: https://t.ly/9_9JG =============== 🎓 eLearning Academy: https://t.ly/u0Dk5 =============== 🌐 Articles: https://michaelbecker.org/articles/ =============== Hosted on Acast.

Ep. #110: Move to a Decentralized, Distributed Branded Newsroom 13:29

منذ 47 weeks13:29

13:29

It's time to move to a distributed brand newsroom. An emergent opportunity for entrepreneurs building companies is to decentralize the content function by moving to what I call a participatory publishing model. Here, your entire team is responsible for content (not one or two marketing people). In a creator-centric model, the system constraint is the capacity (and limited knowledge base) of the team responsible for creating content. But let’s be honest: most content managers are trained to write for SEO and top-funnel traffic, not for the customer. With a company-centric newsroom, there is no constraint. Content is guaranteed to be more diverse, more relevant and more value-additive for an audience who’s looking for real, tangible, unbiased stuff that they know they won’t glean from a surface-level blog written by a junior marketing person. ↓ 𝗡𝗘𝗫𝗧 𝗦𝗧𝗘𝗣𝗦 ↓ =============== 📖 CONTENT CAPITALIST: https://t.ly/9_9JG =============== 🎓 eLearning Academy: https://t.ly/u0Dk5 =============== 🌐 Articles: https://michaelbecker.org/articles/ =============== Hosted on Acast.

In this episode, I explain how humans are poised to evolve with, and, ultimately, through technology. I share how my view on technological mergence has shifted 180-degrees from where I was three or four years ago. The transhumanist dystopia many are fearful about is only one (and a very unlikely) scenario. The truth is that ascension—a divine and spiritual process whereby consciousness progresses toward reintegration with the Oneness, with Source—must happen with technology as a sort of accelerant. We are in the process of catalyzing a quantum shift in Humanity's evolution and technology is a tool with which we will supercharge our ascension as a human race. I share thoughts on what this all means and why it matters. ↓ 𝗡𝗘𝗫𝗧 𝗦𝗧𝗘𝗣𝗦 ↓ =============== 📖 CONTENT CAPITALIST: https://t.ly/9_9JG =============== 🎓 eLearning Academy: https://t.ly/u0Dk5 =============== 🌐 Articles: https://michaelbecker.org/articles/ =============== Hosted on Acast.

I was selected to participate in Antler's Spring '24 MENAP cohort, their first in Dubai. Getting invited into Antler is statistically more difficult to do than gaining acceptance into Harvard. For context, Antler accepts about 3% of applicants across their 12 global locations, and the acceptance rate for their MENAP arm is even less than that (0.2%). I lived in Dubai for a two-month residency for the startup prior to splitting up with my team. In this episode, I share five learnings from the journey. ↓ 𝗡𝗘𝗫𝗧 𝗦𝗧𝗘𝗣𝗦 ↓ =============== 📖 CONTENT CAPITALIST: https://t.ly/9_9JG =============== 🎓 eLearning Academy: https://t.ly/u0Dk5 =============== 🌐 Articles: https://michaelbecker.org/articles/ =============== Hosted on Acast.
