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.

I know what you are thinking. You see the title, and you look down on us. But you shouldn't, because we reviewed "If Wishes Were Horses"! Witness as just too many insane things happen to even bother trying to preview, from esoteric baseball continuity, to...emus?

Coworker Conspiracy Simulator (DS9 S2 : E14 "Whispers") 1:13:20

vor 7 Tagen1:13:20

1:13:20

We get a double dose of Irish Suffering as we review "Whispers"! Miles is doing some dramatic monologues as he tries to unravel a conspiracy, but can anything really compare to Keiko hitting the runner-runner on Sisko having to tell her bad news about her husband?

1
Christmas Elves of Chemical Warfare (DS9 S2: E13 "Armageddon Game") 56:48

vor 14 Tagen56:48

56:48

We get a bit too much TNG in our DS9 as we tackle the very odd "Armageddon Game". When Miles and Julian go on an under explained work trip, some local Christmas Elves decide to murder everyone. Why is this happening? Who knows, but at least we know Julian loves feet.

1
Father Knows Best (DS9 S2 : E12 "The Alternate") 57:59

vor 21 Tagen57:59

57:59

Despite all his rage, Odo is just some goo in a cage as we review "The Alternate. When Odo's step-dad pops in to annoy his son, a monster hunt ensues, O'Brien gets sent into Viet Cong tunnels, and this ensemble show casually demonstrates its power.

1
Quark's Discount Wario (DS9 S2 :E11 "Rivals") 58:13

vor 28 Tagen58:13

58:13

Our heroes have to wade through some real underbaked nonsense as we try to make some sense of "Rivals"! When a local space con man finds a handy device that breaks laws of probability, wacky events ensue! Seriously, the best part of this involves Julian and Miles playing racquetball.

Interview with Feral Historian 59:16

vor etwa einem Jahr59:16

59:16

We have a true V'Ger Please special as we interview Matt, the mind behind the YouTube channel 'Feral Historian'! We dig deep on our Star Trek takes, his approach to making such layered video essays, and if there was any way to have ever made Enterprise watchable. PLEASE subscribe to Matt's channel! https://www.youtube.com/@feralhistorian…

Refugees from Good Skin Care (DS9 S2 : E10 "Sanctuary") 50:19

vor etwa einem Jahr50:19

50:19

Nothing quite like like a good dose of Voyager style goo hair and untreated skin rashes to make a bad episode worse as we review "Sanctuary". Get ready to hear a very obvious message over and over for the world's least sympathetic victims of the week. Even Kira and Quark can't save this one.

1
Delete the Husband (DS9 S2 : E9 "Second Sight") 1:07:25

vor etwa einem Jahr1:07:25

1:07:25

The most eligible widower on the Space Flying J meets the most fetching space elf of all time as we review "Second Sight". When the world's most charming douchebag shows up to Genesis device a star, Sisko falls in love with his wife. Kind of? Really just watch this one for the Ben/Jake scenes.

1
Deep Space Noir (DS9 S2 : E8 "Necessary Evil") 1:11:44

vor etwa einem Jahr1:11:44

1:11:44

It's a dark and stormy night on Azeroth (literally) as we review "Necessary Evil". Odo puts on his sharp suit and fedora as he works to crack the case of an old murder. We got femme fatales, kablamo guns, conspiracies, Dukat, stabbed security guards, dramatic narrations...what else could you want?

1
The Rules of Love Stories (DS9 S2 : E7 "Rules of Acquisition") 1:13:07

vor etwa einem Jahr1:13:07

1:13:07

Nothing like a story of tragic romance featuring a character named Pel to excite your hosts as they review "Rules of Acquisition"! When Zek shows up to bribe Kira and send Quark on a wine buying mission, we Twelfth Night the heck out of the Gamma Quad. Can Dax help Quark find love?

1
The Shooter Was Known To Authorities (DS9 S2 : E6 "Melora") 1:02:28

vor etwa einem Jahr1:02:28

1:02:28

Nothing like a mid-season script hackjob to bring your hosts down as we review the difficult "Melora". A deeply irritating woman comes to DS9, Julian is attracted to her for no particular reason, we get clumsy disability allegory, but at least Odo gets to watch Quark suffer!

1
Adventures with Starfleet CPS (DS9 S2 : E5 "Cardassians") 1:03:16

vor etwa einem Jahr1:03:16

1:03:16

When a humble tailor can't keep his hands to himself, we are gifted the opportunity to review "Cardassians"! After Garak gets bit, the galaxy's most complex custody battle takes place. O'Brian gets to be extremely racist, Dukat gets to chew scenery, and Bashir might want to think about locking his door.…

1
Ops of Rage (DS9 S2 : E4 "Invasive Procedures" 1:11:53

vor etwa einem Jahr1:11:53

1:11:53

Our man Death Row Sisko starts throwing ALL the hands as we enjoy "Invasive Procedures". When nebbish John Glover Trill shows up to claim the Dax symbiote, the most wild throwdown ever seen in Trek pops off. Did Tim Russ get hit so hard it made Tuvok bad at security? You decide!

1
Space Regime Change (DS9 S2 : E3 "The Siege") 1:01:12

vor etwa einem Jahr1:01:12

1:01:12

The air is thick with plot resolutions as we wrap up the Bajoran Coup arc with "The Siege"! While Space Nixon tries to seal the deal, Sisko and company engage in annoying antics, Kira and Dax bond while nearly dying, and we stand in wonder of delightful creative arrogance of it all.

1
Death Row Sisko (DS9 S2 : E2 "The Circle") 1:01:13

vor etwa einem Jahr1:01:13

1:01:13

The Space Nixon action is only heating up as we review "The Circle". We are only two episodes in and it's like we are reading a book with this level of plot density. Bajoran coups! Single shot comedy scenes! Very sexy orbs! Jump in for a wild ride.

The Federation's Sexy Tricks (DS9 S2 : E1" The Homecoming") 1:17:10

vor etwa einem Jahr1:17:10

1:17:10

The Deep Space Nine Quality Train hits us hard right out of the gate, as we review the Season 2 premiere - "The Homecoming". When Space Nixon show us talking about to Make Azeroth Great Again, you can count on Kira to rescue a famous Bajoran leader with the help of a loveable Irish pimp. All this before Sisko has even finished his coffee!…
