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.

2024 NFL Draft Preview - Running Backs! 1:14:13

hace 1 year1:14:13

1:14:13

Takes us 10 mins to get to football. Skip forward if you hate fun and only care about this upcoming rookie class. Speaking of the rookie class, what a class it will be! Well, the QB and WR class is potentially generational, but this week we are covering the RB class. Unfortunately there is no Bijan, no McCaffrey (or is there?) but there probably is a Trent Richardson! Have a listen and get ready for our next episode, A Way Too Early Rookie Mock Draft! Have a listen back at the WR and QB episodes if you haven’t had the pleasure!

NFL Week 12 - Rebound or Down? 1:13:53

hace 1 year1:13:53

1:13:53

Reich was fired, McDermott is coaching like he may be trying to get fired and Kyren Williams looked like he was fired from a cannon. Tank Dell, although ironically named, continues to show out. Is he now a top 20 fantasy WR? Top 15 even? What about Nico Collins? Almost everyone had him ahead of Dell to start the season. Can both boys continue to feast? Pulse check on the Steelers offense. Good news is they are alive! Is it real or just a post Matt Canada exuberance? This week all the fellas make it to the recording session and boy was it a doozy! Dynasty check. Lawrence or Stroud? Bijan or Gibbs? Are the first two RBs off the board closer than we initially thought? Rebound or Down! Cooper Kupp, Chris Godwin, Austin Ekeler and Damien Pierce are all players that are having a down season. Will this trend continue or we primed for a rest of season rebound?

1:19:26

We have had a development in the Racoon War of 2023. In lieu of purchasing simple garbage cans and ending the stalemate, Dave has decided to take matters into his own hands and is missing, presumed to have been taken into Racoon servitude. Just Jay and Ty this week and thoughts and prayers for Dave's safe return. Rumour has it that the Racoons have set the ransom at 3 jars of peanut butter and Dave’s wife is currently enjoying some “me” time and mulling her options. What do you do if you aren’t competing? Which upcoming free agents should you be looking to sell before their situation changes and value drops? What would you do for a klondike bar? This and much more on this week's instalment of the Dynasty Football Life Podcast! Now with 100% less Dave!

2024 NFL Draft Preview - Wide Receivers! 1:18:25

Dave has a raccoon problem. Ty has a secret regarding raccoons. Dave doesn’t have garbage cans, so it’s less of a raccoon problem and more of a “not having a garbage can problem”. Not sure where his teams live, considering his lack of garbage cans… This week the fellas deep dive into a selection of some the top wide receivers about to hit the NFL draft! 2024 is gonna be a doozy! Marvin Harrison Jr, Emeka Egbuka, Malik Nabers, Keon Coleman, Rome Odunze, Xavier Worthy, Troy Franklin, Brian Thomas Jr, Xavier Legette, Adonai Mitchell and Roman Wilson oh my! 2024 Rookie WR Rankings https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Qpm3eNTQk3cuIvdWFVCwpDgOxCc86KMmgHBgY4cwRNY/edit#gid=0 DM and Follow us on Twitter ⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠@dynastylife_ff⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Give us a visit! ⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠https://www.dynastyfootballlife.com/…

Which rookies have tantalized us with their wares and which others leave us with a bit of buyer's remorse? Unfortunately fantasy football does not accept returns. At the halfish way point we are gonna pulse check this year's crop of rookies. Who has exceeded expectations? Who is worth waiting on and who are we getting close to moving on from? C.J. Stroud, Puka Nacua, Jahmyr Gibbs, Jordan Addison, Tank Dell, Bryce Young,Sam LaPorta, Dalton Kinkaid, Bijan Robinson, Josh Downs and Zay Flowers are just a few of the names that will tickle your ear drums!

Dynasty Fantasy Mainstays or Just Fantasy? RB and TE Edition! 1:33:10

hace 1 year1:33:10

1:33:10

Welcome to the 69th (nice) instalment of The Dynasty Football Life Podcast! Dave tells a harrowing story of a recent altercation with the police. Unlike Chris Olave, he did not make the news. Believe it or not! Puka Nacua is a top-10 dynasty wide receiver? Is DeShaun Watson washed and not going to return to being a good NFL QB? Is Quentin Johnson the next Jalen Reagor? Will Marquise Brown will finish as a top 15 WR? Can AJ Brown challenge Tyreek Hill for 2024 WR1 overall? Will the Jameson Williams breakout still happen this season? Has Rashee Rice has established himself as a WR2 rest of season? Will Jacoby Brisett be Washington’s starting QB at some point this season? Fantasy Mainstays or is it just Fantasy? This week we take a look at some of the RB and TE 1s and 2s after 7 weeks of football and decide if they can keep up the production, increase or was it all just a fantasy? Raheem Mostert, Kyren Williams (Just to clarify Dave, it is Ky Ren not Ky Reen), Isaiah Pacheco, Josh Jacobs, Brian Robinson Jr (Chris Rodriguez ;), Tony Pollard, Derrick Henry, Alvin Kamara, Alexander Mattison, Jahmyr Gibbs, Daren Waller, Jonnu Smith, Zack Ertz and the Trey McBride hype, Dalton Kinkaid and David Njoku. That's a lot of names and we don’t just read em’ off. We talk about them too! DM and Follow us on Twitter ⁠⁠⁠@dynastylife_ff⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Give us a visit! ⁠⁠⁠https://www.dynastyfootballlife.com/…

Panic meter segment! Are you panicking about certain players? Do you suffer from a case of the Jeudy’s? We are just what the Dr ordered! On the panic radar, or is it a meter? On the panic device? This week we have appearances from James Cook, Jerry Jeudy, Damien Pierce and Jahan Dotson! We play a spirited round of “Dynasty Choose ‘em”. Jay was pushing to play “Wife Swap” instead but the fellas had to remind him he does not in fact, have a wife to swap. Anthony Richardson or CJ Stroud? Sam LaPorta or Dalton Kincaid? Garret Wilson or Amon Ra St. Brown? Tee Higgins or Aiyuk? Ridley or Godwin? Fantasy Mainstays or is it just Fantasy? This week we take a look at some of the QB and WR 1s and 2s after 6 weeks of football and decide if they can keep up the production or is it all just a fantasy? Adam Thielen, Puka Nakua, DJ Moore, Nico Collins, Jakobi Meyers, Christian Kirk, Zay Flowers, Gabe Davis, Jared Goff, Brock Purdy, Sam Howell and CJ Stroud are just some of the names!

NFL Injuries Hurt! RB Rankings and Dynasty Buy and Sell! 1:10:25

hace 1 year1:10:25

1:10:25

In the 3rd grade Dave sprained a joint, which one of the many things Dave has in common with Anthony Richardson. A Richardson less field is sad for fantasy. Have his injury woes impacted our rankings? Unlike The Highlander, Cooper Kupp and Puka Nakua can both exist at the same time! Achane is out. Fire up your Mosterts and maybe Jeff Wilson Jrs? Dave wants to know how Mr. Wilson Sr is doing. It’s always about the Jr… Add a claim for Emari Demercado. Don’t know who he is? Neither did Dave. Dave thinks the football gods must keep the hamstrings in balance. The Lord giveth Kupp and Takeith away Jefferson. Fire up your Addisons and Osbornes. We break out the magic 8 balls and star charts and navigate the Colts backfield. Colts not gonna pay a running back and bring in Zack Moss. He explodes. Point proven. No need to pay. Sign JT to a massive contract and pay the running back? JT is elite and we are glad he’s back. But what do we do with Moss? Ty discloses his #1 trading strategy. Negging. He likes to start every trade with “I know you are rebuilding”. He may be on to something. Breece Hall took off and Dave wants to know about Michael Carter? Dalvin Cook ain’t much more relevant… Roschon Johnson time incoming? As long as he can shed concussion protocol we think so. We end with our favorite and most popular segment. Dynasty Buy and Sell. Did you know in my day you could get a running back, a moon pie and a news wheel for only a nickel?! Chubba Hubbard, Miles Sanders, Kyle Pitts, Derrick Henry, Tyjae Spears, Raheem Mostert, Josh Downs, Marquise Brown, Jokobi Myers, George Kittle and Zach Charbonnet oh my! Are we buying? Are we selling? Who knows! You will if ya have a listen!

So you made a bad pick or two in the 1st or 2nd round of the past few drafts and now you don't know what to do? Situation may be bad or maybe they aren’t living up to their potential; no matter what, they are still declining assets. Is it time to take what you can get for them before they become the next Kevin White on your roster? Or is fantasy relevancy right around the corner? We discuss some of the most frustrating 1st and 2nd round rookie picks from the past couple years. Justin Fields, Kyle Pitts, Drake London, Skyy Moore, Clyde Edwards Helaire, Cam Akers, Treylon Burks, Najee Harris, Javonte Williams and Rashod Bateman oh my!…

Week 4 Reactions - Believe it or Not! Dynasty QB Rankings Abound! 1:08:33

hace 1 year1:08:33

1:08:33

Jameson Williams is small and fast and that is something Ty is all too familiar with. He is back for this week but has his buy low window closed? Quentin Johnson disappointed in what is to be believed an expanded role with Mike Williams out. What are the expectations moving forward? Keaton Mitchell. Post Achane archetype hype or is there a path to touches in the ravens backfield? Ty says unkind things about Justice Hill and we hear him die a little inside. Should the Patriots just save everyone else's time by playing CFL rules and just punt on the 3rd down? 71% of drives ending in a punt or a turnover says yes! Bailey Zappe on the radar? Concerned about ceiling fan maintenance? So is Dave. Concern is also abound for Joe Burrows Bengals of Cincinnati. Ty and Jay adjust their in season QB rankings and a few rookies have jumped up. Who has dropped for us? *See below for rankings. In this week's instalment of “Believe it or Not!” Is “Puka time” still a regularly scheduled program with the potential return of target magnet Cupp? JSN or Puka? Flowers? WTF is wrong with the Atlanta offense? Achane top 5 RB rest of season? David Montgomery RB12 or better rest of season? What about Gibbs? Can he crack RB 24? Did Khalil Herbert do enough in week 4 to stay ahead of Roschon Johnson? Zach Wilson or Daniel Jones? What a gross question. Check back soon for a bonus episode this week as we play the “Dynasty Dating Show! Date #3 or kick 'em to the curb!” Looking at the past few seasons of round 1 rookie draft picks and deciding if we are inviting them in for “coffee” or do we kick 'em to the curb? *QB rankings Jay Rankings TIER Ty Rankings TIER 1 Josh Allen 1 1 Josh Allen 1 2 Patrick Mahomes 1 2 Patrick Mahomes 1 3 Jalen Hurts 1 3 Jalen Hurts 1 4 Justin Herbert 1 4 Justin Herbert 2 5 Joe Burrow 2 5 Anthony Richardson 2 6 Lamar Jackson 2 6 CJ Stroud 2 7 Trevor Lawrence 2 7 Joe Burrow 2 8 Anthony Richardson 2 8 Lamar Jackson 2 9 C.J.

Week 3 - Buying the Hype or Buyers Remorse? Believe it or Not! New Segments Abound! 1:18:29

hace 1 year1:18:29

1:18:29

This week the fellas predict the next Taylor Swift single. "Catching Kelce" was a show and T Swift took that as a challenge. Jay mispronounces Jahan once again. Dave, not to be outdone, mispronounces almost everything. "Buying the Hype or Buyers Remorse?" and "Believe it or Not" are two new segments that make their debut. Hint. There may be some remorse on the Justin Fields hype in the offseason. Achane, Waller, LaPorta, Tank Dell, James Cook and Marvin Mims (Or Denzel Mims if you are Dave) are just a few of the names that make an appearance. Can Tyreek finish as WR1? Will Kamara be a top 15 RB rest of season? Can Gabe Davis finish as a top 24 WR? Does this look infected? Will Sam LaPorta finish as a top 4 TE? How's about Quentin Johnson? Top 24 WR rest of season? Tune in to find out and more! Timestamps (03:16) Mike Williams out for the season with a torn ACL (08:10) Dave: Achane and Mostert should be in your starting lineup (12:42) buy the Hype or Buyer's remorse (26:22) Pitts for Laporta (33:56) Tank Dell has had a couple strong weeks (38:06) James Cook is getting a lion's share of carries for the Buffalo Bills (42:39) Ty, take us through current leaders in YPRR yards per route run (46:54) Do you believe Tyreek Hill will finish as WR one this season (54:41) Will Kirk Cousins will finish in top eight (01:03:45) Johnson with highest upside if Keenan Allen stays healthy (01:07:26) Should you trade Jahan Dotson for Tank Dell in Dynasty (01:11:13) Will Derek Henry will get traded and Tajae Spears (01:14:09) Do you think Luke Musgrave can still muster a top eight finish DM and Follow us on Twitter @dynastylife_ff Give us a visit! https://www.dynastyfootballlife.com/ AkykBw2sxP26cyllv5MK…

Week 2 Reactions. Marry/Bang/Kill and Aaron Rodgers and Dolphin Love 1:22:38

hace 1 year1:22:38

1:22:38

Dave's got a thing for Dolphins and so does Rodgers. One is attempting a return for the playoffs and the other isn't allowed at SeaWorld anymore. Who is in the Shadows? What is he doing there? Jay is, that's who. What's he doing? No one knows. Probably mashing it. Puka Nacua. What's his dynasty value now? Hint. It's high. Dave doesn't remember Keke Coutee but ask him about Tallahassee and it's importance to Florida governance. Where in the world is Carmen Sandiego? Dave has an inkling and he's positive she is somewhere in the contiguous United States; likely a state capital. This week we look at the ever shaping landscape that was week 2 of fantasy football and play a rousing game of Marry-Bang-Kill. Panic is abound or it isn't. The fellas rate 1 to 10 on their panic level...or was it 10 to 1 Dave? Alex Mattison, Justin Fields, Dallas Goedert, Maccabee Jones, Breece Hall and Joe Burrow headline the marquee. Who are we putting in a claims for on for week 3 waivers? Listen to find out! DM and Follow us on Twitter @dynastylife_ff Give us a visit! https://www.dynastyfootballlife.com/…

Week 1 Reactions and Over Reactions. Puka Time or the Next Kenbrell Thompkins? 1:09:33

hace 1 year1:09:33

1:09:33

Dave has many fantasies. 3.98 is good enough for him and his wife thankfully. ACL and Achilles are used interchangeably. Jets are cursed. Madden curse or are the Bills just cursed? Is Zach Wilson a buy? No. No one ever suggested that. Week 1 was a cruel mistress. The Aaron Rodgers era almost lasted longer than Jay in bed and still almost outperformed the Giants offense. Overreactions are abound in the first week and we take a look at those that might have legs and poo poo the absurd. We look at some of the RB rooms that might have the winds of change blowing through. Speaking of blowing; how bout them Bills?
