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.

Lucretius' The Nature of Things 15:39

منذ 8 years15:39

15:39

In this podcast, co-hosts Will Weber and Sean Kirkpatrick continue their discussion on how the Ancients viewed the Relationship between the Gods and the Natural World by examining Lucretius' The Nature of Things. Many Ancient Poets, such as Hesiod and Homer, believed that Zeus and the Greek Gods had a purposeful hand in the creation, existence and destruction of the Natural World. Lucretius, in his epic poem The Nature of Things, derives a different explanation for how the Gods and the World interact. In this episode, Co-Hosts Will and Sean dive deeper into a particular passage that encompasses Lucretius' unique and possibly revolutionary view of the Universe, and offer their own compelling interpretation.…

Nature and Divinity: The Personification of the Natural Environment as Dynamic and Godly Characters 10:53

منذ 8 years10:53

The Ancient Greeks had a very intimate connection with the environment around them and it therefore help a great significance to them.
