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.

Episode 113, Published 03/08/2025 Gain confidence with the scriptures through our weekly Bible Study - this conversation discusses the Bible Readings for the week of 03/09. Find the prayer services and upcoming reading list here . We welcome back Bird Treacy for a rich discussion about children's role in church, the Gospel readings for the first week of Lent, and Jesus' relationship with Jewish traditions. Bird gives us a good word about the theological depth of children and how churches should fully include them in worship rather than treating them as distractions. Our conversation transitions into exploring the Gospel of John, focusing on Jesus' personal encounters with Nicodemus, the Samaritan woman, and the official. In an episode perfect for International Women’s Day – Bird highlights how these encounters reveal Jesus' unique ministry and his challenges to cultural expectations. We also discuss the significance of Jesus' Jewishness and how his deep knowledge of tradition enabled him to reinterpret it in ways that expanded access to God. Bird Treacy is a Godly Play Trainer, Episcopal church lady, church programming consultant, and writer based in the greater Boston area. Prior to finding her way to professional work in the church, Bird earned a masters degree in Women’s, Gender, & Sexuality Studies with an emphasis on Disability Studies from Emory University, and she brings both an academic lens and a lived experience of disabled identity to her current work. When not wranging small humans or developing programming, you can usually find Bird cooking, writing, competing in jigsaw puzzle competitions, making lace, or doing some other craft project. She lives with her wife, a current veterinary student, and their five cats.
