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.

Welcome to Revelation and the Timeline of Destruction 1:41:40

One of the many fun things about making this podcast is going from "this is cool!" (ironically) to "yo, this is pretty sick actually" (sincere), so it should be no surprise that breaking down the context around the creation of Revelation and the timeline of the Tribulation judgments was really fun to dig into. The start of this episode is a look into the actual book of Revelation and the history that led to its writing, along with necessary context to help ground this wild and weird book. Then, we enter the Final Terrible Week of The Lord and break down the Seal, Trumpet, and Bowl Judgments that have either already affected our heroes, or will be thrown at them soon. Things are about to get extremely unchill for the Tribulation Force and I cannot wait to talk about it when we get deeper into the series. Even if some of the judgments are repeats... (Really, God? Three earthquakes??) This episode would not have possible without the fine folks over at patreon.com/contenthole . Thank you! Here is a list of some of the sources used: New Oxford Annotated Bible, 3rd Edition Revelation, Blackwell Bible Commentaries, by Judith Kovacs and Christopher Rowland PBS Frontline series on Apocalypse Jones, Brian W.
