Holding the Quill

1:14:43

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.

Holding the Quill - Season 2 Episode 5 "Christmas with the Carpets!" (with special guest Greg Falla from Cereal Killers Podcast) Drinks and Grodes are here with a very special Christmas themed episode 5 of the second season of HTQ! Christmas is almost here and Drinks and Grodes are full of festive cheer discussing Drinks' stubby bush, a 90s Christmas film starring Danny DeVito and saviour Nuns. There's three fantastic call-ins from our favourite listeners including one caller who has recently taken up poetry since being let go from work and Drinks delivers a Quill-literature which reflects on the heroes of 2020 and how we should strive to behave in 2021. One half of the Cereal Killers Podcast, Greg Falla, kindly joins and entertains us in Quill-Legacy where his cereal knowledge is truly put to the test in the hope of putting the Guests 3-2 up in the series. Wishing all of our Quill-LADS and Quillettes a very merry Christmas and a happy new year!
