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.

How would the real U.S. war machine defend against superhuman threats?! When the real Avengers finally assemble, we have found our Nick Fury. Meet Sgt. Todd Bowers, a surprisingly funny, 12-year Marine veteran with multiple tours in Iraq and a non-gamma Purple Heart. Sgt. Bowers debriefs us on several scenarios, like who will have jurisdiction over a city being ripped out of the ground by a maniacal robot. Who are the real-life super-soldiers?

Josh sits down with Isaac Bryan, Executive Director of UCLA's Black Policy Project. Isaac offers perspective on the Black Lives Matter movement, the January 6th assault on our Nation's Capitol, why the pandemic affects underserved communities the hardest, and how politicians and policymakers need to go where the people are (we see, no, hear you Clubhouse). Josh tries out a new game with Isaac that is so painful, no one should play it. Sometimes it's hard to joke about serious stuff, but we hope you learn and get a few laughs from this episode.
