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.

Belonging and Chaos - Reflections on Borderland 2024 with Rich and Synes 1:20:53

17天之前1:20:53

1:20:53

🔗 The Membership Lottery for Borderland 2025 is open until February 25! More information here : https://talk.theborderland.se/main/ In this episode, we discuss our experiences at Borderland 2024, exploring how Microsolidarity—the art of building trust in small groups—might transform large, self-organizing festivals. We reflect on the challenges of navigating such a sprawling, decentralized event: the disorientation that comes from not having a clear "home base" for a week, the struggle of balancing personal agency with surrender, and the surprising cultural tensions that arise when diverse preferences meet dominant aesthetics. We also sniff out ideas for creating intentional micro-structures—small groups, purpose-driven camps, and better onboarding processes—that can turn potentially overwhelming experiences into connective ones. Is it possible to craft spaces that feel like home within the chaos? Can we design better onboarding experiences for first-timers? And what does it take to truly let go and follow the flow? 💬 Let us know your thoughts and further questions in the comments below!

The notacoliving experiment - a 1 month community the making, w/ Kathrin David & Jocelyn Ames 46:56

7 weeks之前46:56

46:56

Kathrin and Jocelyn had a very mutually supportive conversation talking about the 1-month community experiment she's about to launch in southern Spain. Jocelyn was eager to chat with her as it sounded somewhat similar to what she's doing in the Yincubator (and is just 2hrs down the road!). It was clearly helpful and inspiring to hear about each other's approach, concepts and intentions. Notacoliving website: https://giveandgrow.world/notacoliving Find us...

Jocelyn and Abi are back again for more reflections on their experiences with co-living!
