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.

Ending the Year Mindfully 31:57

Welcome back to Oh, Hi Self ! It’s Sandra here, reporting from the newborn vortex—land of sleep-deprived zombie humans. Baby Rio is 5 weeks old, and while life is full of snuggles and hilarious baby noises (think baby elephant meets pterodactyl), it’s been a journey of recovery, patience, and surrender. Today, I’m sharing what life looks like right now—messy and beautiful—and diving into one of my favorite practices: ending the year mindfully. Reflecting on the past year helps us honor our experiences, celebrate progress, and learn from challenges before diving into the new year. Here are some journaling prompts to help you reflect: What were the main events of the year? What themes or lessons stood out? Which relationships mattered most, and how did they evolve? What habits helped you grow? What challenges did you face, and what did you learn? Is there any lingering tension or frustration you can release? Take a moment to pause and reflect—you deserve it.

What We Didn't Learn in School (But Should Have) 44:00

Baby is due any day now, but I was able to squeeze in another episode for ya! This topic has been on my mind for a while. Our educational system has failed us in some pretty big ways, and we've got work to do to change that. Here are 5 of the most crucial subjects we didn't learn in school but should have, in my opinion: 1) Mindfulness 2) Emotional intelligence 3) Assertive communication 4) Personal finance 5) Sex education that is actually empowering We need to do a much better job of equipping young adults with the actual life skills they need. Would love to hear your thoughts on this one!

Honor the Season You're In 35:34

35:34

Today we’re diving deep into a topic that’s been coming up with clients a lot recently, and that is very close to my heart right now: honoring the season you’re in . The season I'm in right now is... being pregnant AF lol. Tune in to hear my latest pregnancy updates. I share how I’m feeling physically and mentally, and what this season is teaching me about slowing down, resting, and creating space for the new life that’s about to join us. In this episode, we explore the power of taking the pressure off, letting go of expectations that don’t serve us, and embracing where we are right now by honoring the season that we're in. Choosing to live this way has removed SO much of the overthinking, judgment, and second guessing that used to be a regular part of the narrative in my brain. It has created WAY more inner peace and inner calm, and has helped me reach a place where I feel grounded and confident most of the time.
