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.

“Reality… is real.” That’s a quote from my favorite book of all time, Ready Player One. It sums up the podcast that is Moose at the Mic. I’m its host, Moose. This podcast leans into everything authentically “me” and my life’s comings and goings. Initially, it was focused on nerdom, but it’s evolved. Now, I discuss parenting, faith and spirituality, dieting and exercising, friendship, and what it means to be a human on this rock floating through space. Sit down. Take a listen. And thanks. Thanks for listening to my podcast.
