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.

Ep 1203 - Three Wins in Four Games, and Evaluating IU Coaching Candidates Part 3 1:12:34

vor 10 hours1:12:34

1:12:34

On the newest CrimsonCast, we take a look at Indiana’s most recent victory against Penn State, and discuss the lineup and coaching changes that have led the Hoosiers to some recent success — and whether what we’re seeing is sustainable. We then dive into the next round of coaching candidates for evaluation. In this batch we tackle some younger candidates, discussing Northwestern’s Chris Collins, Vanderbilt’s Mark Byington, McNeese’s Will Wade, and Ole Miss’s Chris Beard. We also talk about the recent news of TJ Otzelberger’s contract extension.…

Ep 1202 - A Rivalry Win, and Evaluating IU Coaching Candidates Part 2 1:00:34

vor 5 Tagen1:00:34

1:00:34

On this edition of CrimsonCast, we break down Indiana’s surprising 73-58 win over Purdue. We discuss the shortened rotation, the shifting offensive approach that Indiana took, and the defensive adjustment that flustered Purdue’s offense. We also discuss IU’s potential route to the NCAA Tournament, and what they need to do over the next few games. We then turn our attention to the Indiana coaching search, as we zero in on four more names that have been bandied about - Iowa State’s TJ Otzelberger, Creighton’s Greg McDermott, Texas A&M’s Buzz Williams, and Arizona’s Tommy Lloyd. We discuss the pros and cons of each, and also focus on the importance of revenue and available money in examining the relative attractiveness of the IU job compared to other programs.…

Ep 1201 - Evaluating IU Coaching Candidates, Part 1 1:12:04

1:12:04

We are in Week 2 of Indiana Men's Basketball Coaching Search Season, which means A) we have a long time to go until a decision is made, and B) we have a lot of candidates to talk about. On this episode of CrimsonCast, we dive into the numbers for four of the candidates being discussed in relation to the IU job. UCLA's Mick Cronin, Baylor's Scott Drew, Clemson's Brad Brownell, and Drake's Ben McCollum get the spotlight on this episode, as we look at each coach's prior accomplishments, style of play, success rate, and other important factors.…

Ep 1200 - Where Do Coaches Come From? 1:09:54

vor 13 Tagen1:09:54

1:09:54

We start off Episode 1200 by discussing IU's loss to UCLA, the malaise that a lot of fans find themselves experiencing in not particularly caring about the outcome of the individual games, and the reality that IU is likely going to keep playing past the regular season due to some new contractual items with the Big Ten. We then move on to talking about the coaching search - discussing the origin of many of the coaches in the KenPom Top 20, how hires generally work out, and why the idea that Indiana has to go hire a coach from a top program is out of step with the realities of the college basketball coaching world.…

Ep 1199 - Looking Back At Past Hires 56:56

vor 18 Tagen56:56

56:56

We're joined by Tony Adragna, our BHN teammate, to talk about his most recent article on Assembly Call and discuss the IU men's basketball job. One of the main narrative points that has come up during recent searches has involved the relative qualtiy of the Indiana job --- with many media members outside of the IU sphere (and even a few in it, along with some fans) claiming that there's something inherently flawed with the job, and that it's not actually that attractive or that good as a destination. We explore that perspective by looking back at the past four-ish coaching hires, discussing the tenures of each coach, and evaluating some of the factors that have led to each tenure ultimately not being successful.…

It's the first full week of Indiana men's basketball's coaching search, and speculation is rampant about who the Hoosiers might be targeting and what type of coach might be the best fit for Bloomington. We've heard several names bandied about already, but one that has been mysteriously absent --- and who I think deserves some special consideration.…

We start off the show by reflecting on an enjoyable day at The Upstairs Pub with IU fans and our friends from across the Back Home Network, before talking about the Michigan loss and the overall vibe in Assembly Hall and Bloomington. We talk through the Woodson news, the things IU needs to immediately address in the hiring process, and reflect on how challenging the next 6-8 weeks may end up being for fans.…

IU announced on Friday that Mike Woodson would not be returning as IU basketball coach next year, setting off an avalanche of speculation on who the new IU coach might be.

Ep 1194 - Playing Out The String 56:30

vor 27 Tagen56:30

56:30

Indiana played hard at Purdue, gave a good accounting of themselves (for the most part), but still lost. We talk about the effort and energy, but also the execution issues that continue to plague the team in the clutch. There are no simple answers - it appears to be a combination of roster construction issues, coaching issues, planning issues, communication issues, and other items. With no clear resolution on the cards, there's not much else to do but talk about it - hence this episode.…

As Indiana gets ready to take on Purdue this Friday, a decent number of fans appear to think that the Hoosiers have already blown their shot at the tournament. The truth is that they have not --- yet --- but the trends are not positive, with IU having lost four of their last five games. However, Indiana's not that far outside the field right now. We dive into a variety of numbers to explore where IU sits as a team on the eve of February, and talk about what the Hoosiers need to do in order to get back on the right side of the cut line.…

Indiana men’s basketball continued their confusing season with an exciting and unpredictable chapter last night, traveling to Columbus and knocking off Ohio State by a point in overtime. It certainly wasn’t perfect, with IU surrendering a double-digit lead late and allowing OSU to force the extra frame, but strong games from Luke Goode and Oumar Ballo helped propel the Hoosiers to a much-needed victory. Longtime CrimsonCast contributor Allie Sanzenbacher was on the scene to watch the game, and we get her impressions of how the Hoosiers played, how the game went, and even a little Ohio State football talk at the very end.…

Indiana men's basketball has some serious issues, most of which were laid bare in the 25-point home loss to Illinois earlier this week. We discuss the difficult situation that the program and the athletic department are in, and the likelihood that things get uncomfortable and unpleasant over the next two months.…
