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.

If Part 1 had you hooked, just wait—this episode goes even deeper. Summer Miller is back, and we’re diving into the messy, unpredictable journey that led her to where she is today. Growing up in a tiny Oregon town, following in her brother’s footsteps (but making them her own), and eventually breaking free from corporate life to build something that actually matters—this one’s a ride. We talk about taking big risks, surviving corporate burnout, and the unexpected ways life prepares you for what’s next (like managing a house full of kids and somehow staying sane). Oh, and there’s music, bad piano lesson excuses, and a possibly very questionable ranking system that makes us "big in France." Hit play and join the chaos—because the best stories come from taking the leap before you feel ready.

Change is messy, weird, and—let’s be honest—most of us hate it. That’s where Summer Miller comes in. She helps businesses navigate big transitions without losing their people in the process. But before we get too serious, this episode has it all: tea (because dry January), DJ alter egos, and why some company leaders act like cigar-smoking villains. We break down why change feels so uncomfortable, how most companies get it wrong, and the magic of embracing the awkward "Poliwog" phase (yes, we’re making that a thing). Summer makes the case for leading change in a way that actually works—and, spoiler: it’s not by forcing people to “buy in.” Hit play, grab a drink (we won't judge if it’s not tea), and stay tuned for Part 2—where we get into Summer’s personal journey and how she built a career out of making change suck less.

Whether you're an aspiring entrepreneur or considering your next move, this episode is filled with actionable advice, humor, and a heartfelt perspective on what it really means to step away from something you’ve built.
