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 math that powers 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.

Mention The BBQ Central Show for 10% off your entire order!! ___________________________________________ Taking you back to 2/23/2016 - This week, featuring a pitmaster by the name of Jim Burg from a team called Killer B’s. Back in those days, Jim was a highly competitive and successful BBQ cook on the KCBS circuit. Won a number of GCs…had a few interviews on the show for his accomplishments…and then came down with a horrific illness and almost died. Within the minutes of this show that Jon has put together, we talk about how he got into competition BBQ and what really drew him into staying in it. He actually won the 2014 Sam's Club National Title (when that was a thing). I say it every week…but THIS TIME…hit the link for the full interview. This was a deeply moving segment and interview…and if you don’t remember it…or you never heard it…I think it is safe to say that this will be time well spent if you check the whole thing out. Jim did recover and is still around today…not completely divesting out of BBQ comps…but is in a different chapter for the most part as we sit here in 2025. In any event, be sure to check out the show this Friday and then click on over for the full segment later and let me know what you think! Ready to make a “BEST OF” show all your own?? Email Jon Solberg and let him know what you would like to hear on a future episode!

I don’t know what my side of payment would have been had I lost…but I didn’t lose…so no matter. HOWEVER, Chad lost…and his side of payment was, that if he lost…which he did…he would have to come on the show and shave his head and his carefully manicured “chin beard”...which is very important to Chad…and Chad’s lady friend at the time, who loved the hair and the beard, is the one that actually did the shaving…I don’t have any idea where the video would be on this…but the audio is pretty great…so be sure to grab it this Friday!!
