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.

Today, and perhaps for the next few weeks, I’m changing the format of the podcast to bring you some of my thoughts and plans about where Ultra You is going from here. When I launched Ultra You, I had a specific audience in mind – an audience of compassionate, high-achieving women who want to redefine their success. I’ve had a great year on the podcast, with 55 episodes broadcast to date. I’ve brought you experts on topics as varied as the detrimental effects of sleep deprivation, how to manage a merger for your entrepreneurial business, and what “giving back” philanthropically can mean to you in terms of lifestyle, legacy, and leading by example. Now, I need to turn my attention to seeking funding for my non-profit organization, the Wells International Foundation (WIF), with the intent to fully implement projects in all six of our strategic focus areas. One of these areas is an exclusive community for you as a member of the specific audience that I describe above. Tune in to learn more about this group and see whether you want to become a part of it!…
