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?

Look at the Bright Side 13:32

منذ 21 يومًا13:32

Some things in life are just plain bad and there’s no way to spin it in a positive fashion. But then there are lots of things that do have a bright side if you just have the right perspective. Let’s talk about some matters in the financial world that might initially seem bad but could definitely have a silver lining for you. For example, owing capital gains taxes might feel like a burden, but it actually means your investments have grown significantly. Similarly, facing an unexpected job loss can be unsettling, but with the right financial plan in place, it could be an opportunity to retire earlier than expected or make a smooth career transition. Tune in as we talk about how strategic planning can turn financial challenges into opportunities and give you greater confidence and control over your retirement journey! Here’s what we discuss in today’s show: Why owing capital gains taxes might not be as bad as it seems How proper financial planning can help you prepare for unexpected events like job loss Why waiting for "life to settle down" before making a financial plan is a mistake Key Takeaway "If you're… going to be retiring in less than 10 years, I don't know of a better investment of your time than to come to our course, and then come in specifically and let us do an analysis for you personally."

With the years of experience we have working in financial planning, we’ve come across so many different scenarios involving someone’s house or residence that they need to think through. Most people haven’t worked through these complex decisions and we often find that the way they’re thinking about their homes, a lot of times, isn’t very effective. Today we’re going to talk about these decisions involving the home, like selling your house to downsize and then investing the difference. There’s a complicated relationship between homeownership and retirement planning, and often times people don’t even truly understand all the options that are available to them. That’s where customized financial planning becomes incredibly valuable, and we’ll talk about that process as well. If you’re feeling uncertain about your retirement housing decisions or you’re just starting to think through your retirement plans, this show should be very helpful. Here’s what we discuss in today’s show: Should you downsize your home and invest the difference? The different personal factors that go into each of these financial decisions. Many people don’t even know the different options they have for each choice. Key Takeaway: "There are so many times where people are missing opportunities they could take advantage of or they're missing out on these strategies because they don't even know they exist."
