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.

Apologies for the late episode - both Dan and Riley have been on tour, but we've got this one for you (recorded a while back). Contained herein: ideas for new recipes, Nazi statue watch, and the Tory leader "uniting the country" with a very thin gruel of vibes alone.

hace 2 años5:42

5:42

Riley and Dan were in the Trashfuture studios last week, and we spoke to certified indie superfan and sometime producer Nate Bethea about synthesisers, what it means to like music others find offputting, and (according to Riley) definitely making up at least half the band names.

Are You Crazy Enough To Be PM? 58:08

hace 2 años58:08

58:08

Well, the mad lad did it: Canada's oldest young conservative Pierre Poilievre is head of the Conservative Party. We talk about what makes him a particular threat to Canada's comfortable governing consensus, which is essentially that he has matched the energy and madness of his crazy ideas with the permanent grinding crisis in which Canada is stuck. PS: Sorry about late episodes, everyone! Riley, Dan, and Milo (who produces this show) have all been away, and Riley's internet has been down. But we're back in regular, fine form!…

Dan and Riley are recording together in Montreal for the first time (temporally) and the second time (as far as you know). We discuss the emerging scene around the happening "Donald Duck Tavern Quadrilateral," and how all of Montreal's coolest people have become Orthodox Catholics. Additionally, we take in the newest phenomenon in Canadian politics sure to sweep the nation: Centre-Ice Conservatism. Get the full episode on Patreon! www.patreon.com/dabottlemen…

Austerity Barrage ft. Peter Korotaev 58:18

hace 3 años58:18

58:18

Note: this one is mentioned as the premium but we decided to make it a free one! Peter Korotaev (known by an alias on previous episodes, while he was in Kyiv) rejoins us to talk about the strange war economy that Ukraine has found itself with. Heavily indebted, heavily privatised, and *still* citing the disproven/disgraced "Growth in a Time of Debt" hypothesis.

hace 3 años9:22

Fertile Eyes Fertilise Fertile Lies 52:46

hace 3 años52:46

52:46

Riley and Dan speak about the history and politics of fertiliser with Matt Huber, author of Climate Change as Class War . But first, we review the strange world of the Pacific Northwest that Dan saw on tour. Long story short, a lot more shantytown and a lot more of the wreckage of a scooter based economy.

hace 3 años6:53

Dan is off being a rock star, so Riley and Tech Won't Save Us's Paris Marx take a look at That Rogers Outage and question how "more competition" could have stopped this, but first - a few developments in the mad world of self driving cars, a concept that only makes sense when you assume money is free forever.

Pierre Poilievre Speaks for the Trees 1:05:43

hace 3 años1:05:43

1:05:43

With Bitcoin done, Canada's putative conservative leader becomes absorbed by the forest, and emerges as an esoteric log-o-crat. Also, we look at the emergence of "UltraFast" delivery in Canada - a business model that never made any money or sense anywhere else... but that we didn't want to be left out of. Finally, we review some expert testimony on Eastern Europe that the NDP's most prominent theatre fan was not so keen on. Forget it Jake, it's Starship Troopers. We've got a Patreon!
