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.

A comprehensive examination of the often-overlooked contributions of women during the Revolutionary War, this episode offers listeners an insightful discourse on the myriad ways women influenced the conflict, particularly in the Southern colonies. Through the engaging dialogue between hosts Amii and Eric, the episode invites audiences to reconsider the historical narrative that has largely marginalized female voices. The discussion is timely, coinciding with Women's History Month, which serves as a backdrop for the exploration of women's roles and their significance in the revolutionary movement. The hosts delve into individual stories of women like Elizabeth Martin, who navigated the challenges of wartime while maintaining her family, and Emily Geiger, whose daring exploits as a messenger exemplify the courage and resourcefulness of women during this tumultuous period. Throughout the episode, Amii and Eric emphasize the importance of recognizing women's contributions not only to the home front but also to the political landscape of the time. The women discussed herein actively participated in protests, organized support networks, and even took on roles that directly impacted military engagements. By presenting these narratives, the hosts aim to challenge the traditional perception of women's roles in history, advocating for a more inclusive understanding that acknowledges their agency and impact. As the episode unfolds, listeners are encouraged to reflect on the significance of these stories, recognizing the vital part women played in shaping the revolutionary narrative. The episode concludes with a call to action, urging listeners to seek out and amplify women's stories within the historical record. Amii and Eric's discussion not only enriches our understanding of the Revolutionary War but also serves as a reminder of the ongoing need to advocate for the inclusion of diverse voices in history. By shining a light on these remarkable women, the hosts inspire a deeper appreciation for the complexities of the past and the enduring legacy of women's contributions to American independence.

Episode 41 | Thirteen Dooms! With Author James Maxey 57:23

24 napja57:23

57:23

Engaging with the theme of apocalypse, this episode of Welcome to Wonder Land serves as a thought-provoking meditation on the nature of human existence and the potential for self-inflicted annihilation. Through an earnest discussion with author James Maxey, we explore the cultural fascination with post-apocalyptic narratives, tracing their lineage from early literary works to contemporary media. The dialogue is enriched by personal anecdotes and reflections from the hosts, who grapple with their own fears and perceptions about the end of the world. Maxey's latest publication is positioned as a lens through which we can scrutinize our collective anxieties, as he delineates thirteen specific apocalyptic scenarios, each accompanied by a dose of levity that belies the gravity of the subject matter. This episode ultimately challenges listeners to confront their apprehensions regarding the future while simultaneously encouraging a dialogue about resilience and the capacity for renewal in the face of despair.
