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.

It's WEEKEND AT BURGIE'S EPISODE 38! Happy New Year! We're kicking off 2022 with an extensive interview with our pal, producer and podcaster Diagnostik80 of The Full Force Podcast. Diagnostik80 is also the beatmaker behind many rap jams you may have heard - including the Wordburglar collaborations TORONTAUN, CYBERTRONNOISEUR & SPECTRAL MIC! On today's episode Diagnostik80 (aka Chris McLeod) and Burgie dig deep into a lifetime love of music and action figures and reveal all the creative pursuits that led Chris to combine his passions and focus on The Full Force podcast. For those who don't know, The Full Force is an in-depth, weekly podcast resource dedicated to G.I.JOE and Action Force (subscribe to it now!) and whether or not you're familiar with Chris' work on the Full Force or his hip-hop beat production (or maybe his Basketball career?) this episode is packed with fascinating gems and possibly never-heard-before adventures from Chris' life.
