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.

I'm done with the selective outrage. Putting an end to corruption became a motto that helped them instill a sense of hope and their capability to achieve this goal, however this did not end well due to their failure to uproot the cause of corruption without being biased in their approach. We are faced with a problem of crooks in suits, that carry badges who hold senior positions that are alleged to have been parachuted by Mme Patricia M and she has proof which implicates the man with the hat who is a supposed anti-corruption activist, he was never scrutinized like Mr Digital Vibes which led to his resignation. A bold move that was clearly politically fuelled, however it wasn't enough motivation for the man with the hat to walk the plank. Where was Cele's energy during the #PhoenixMassacre?

Welcome To Season 3 💜 11:49

Expressing my views and supporting everyone's right to Free Speech permits me to make my thoughts known and keep fighting the System of Oppression.. Filtering out the rhetoric and the propaganda allows us to form informed opinions based on logic and reason. I am not about to keep quiet when injustice creeps nor am I going to sit down and allow falsified versions of our history as children of the soil be distributed because that too contributes to the problem! One of my fav quotes by Baba Credo Mutwa: "A country that speaks against it's heritage, is a dead country" now with what we are being fed, the content degrades our africanness! degrades our customs and traditions all in the name of religion and some form of salvation-that's where I come in bethuna! This season will consist of ✨exposing the lies we were and are still being fed. ✨Educating ourselves about our history before the infiltration of the white man. ✨Celebrating our Roots. ✨ Keeping the entertainment globe on, with our interesting and highly informative African tales & lessons. To my listeners both new and old, thank you for your time also don't forget to click on that subscription button💜✨ Music By, The Beautiful Simikha Elisiyin 💜…

The National Shutdown which survived the winds of propaganda generated by the SA Government under the ANC and its partner in oppression the DA was a success. It also marked the start of a new era, where ANC officials expose themselves through the jabs they throw on social media and public platforms. If this is what the new dawn meant then they can keep it and allow the citizens of the country decide on which government they would want in charge.
