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.

Sun Tzu 24 Be Victory 2:47

about 22 hours ago2:47

2:47

Sun Tzu wrote, “In war, let your great object be victory, not lengthy campaigns.” How many people spend their lives stuck in the battle, fighting endlessly, never closing, never winning? They grind, they hustle, they push forward—but they have no strategy, no clear endgame. They wear themselves down chasing activity instead of achievement. They mistake effort for execution, motion for progress. Reach out to us by email info22media@gmail.com…

Sun Tzu 23 Turn Every Setback 2:42

2 days ago2:42

2:42

Sun Tzu wrote, “Using the conquered foe to augment one's own strength.” The world will throw obstacles in your path. It will test you, push you, and try to break you. People will doubt you, circumstances will challenge you, and sometimes you will lose. That’s the game. That’s the battlefield. But here’s the difference between warriors and the weak: warriors don’t waste their losses. They use them. Reach out to us by email info22media@gmail.com…

Sun Tzu 22 Captured soldier 2:52

3 days ago2:52

2:52

Sun Tzu wrote, “The captured soldiers should be kindly treated and kept.” Power isn’t just about force. Victory isn’t just about destruction. True dominance—lasting dominance—comes from something deeper. Respect. Strategy. Control. Anyone can crush an enemy. Anyone can burn everything to the ground. But the real warriors, the real champions? They understand that strength is only one part of the equation. How you treat people, how you lead, how you turn opposition into allies—that’s what wins wars. Reach out to us by email info22media@gmail.com…

Sun Tzu 21 When Ten Or More 2:52

4 days ago2:52

2:52

Sun Tzu wrote, “When ten or more chariots have been taken, those should be rewarded who took the first.” Think about that. Not the ones who followed. Not the ones who waited until it was safe. The first. The ones who stepped forward when no one else would. The ones who saw the opportunity and took it. The first chariot is always the hardest to take. It requires courage. It requires risk. It requires you to step into the unknown with nothing but belief and determination. Most people hesitate. Most people wait. They want proof, they want guarantees, they want certainty before they act. But that’s not how wars are won. That’s not how life is conquered. Reach out to us by email info22media@gmail.com…

Sun Tzu 20 Men must be 3:30

7 days ago3:30

3:30

Sun Tzu wrote, "In order to kill the enemy, our men must be roused to anger." Powerful action is fueled by powerful emotion. Sun Tzu understood that warriors don’t fight with half-hearted effort. They don’t step onto the battlefield indifferent or hesitant. To win, they must be fully engaged—mind, body, and spirit. And sometimes, that means tapping into anger, passion, and unshakable resolve . Reach out to us by email. info22media@gmail.com…

Sun Tzu 19 One cartload 3:29

8 days ago3:29

3:29

Sun Tzu wrote, "One cartload of the enemy's provisions is equivalent to twenty of one’s own." Efficiency wins wars. Strength is not just about how much you have—it’s about how well you use what’s available to you . Sun Tzu reminds us that taking one resource from the enemy is far more valuable than depleting your own. Why? Because victory isn’t about working harder—it’s about working smarter .

Sun Tzu 18 The proximity of an army 3:29

9 days ago3:29

3:29

Sun Tzu wrote, "The proximity of an army causes prices to go up, and high prices cause the people's substance to be drained away." War is costly—not just in battle, but in the unseen toll it takes. When an army lingers, resources are consumed, wealth is drained, and the people suffer. Sun Tzu teaches us a powerful truth here: The longer a fight drags on, the more it depletes you.

Sun Tzu 17 Poverty of the state 3:34

10 days ago3:34

3:34

Sun Tzu wrote, "Poverty of the state exchequer causes an army to be maintained by contributions from a distance." A weak foundation leads to dependence. When you lack resources, you are forced to rely on others. When you cannot sustain yourself, you become vulnerable to outside control. Sun Tzu’s words are a warning: If you do not build strength within, you will always be at the mercy of others.…

Sun Tzu 16 Forage on the enemy 3:15

11 days ago3:15

3:15

Sun Tzu wrote, "Bring war material with you from home, but forage on the enemy." Preparation is key, but adaptability wins wars. Sun Tzu’s wisdom reminds us that while you must come into battle equipped, true victory comes from using what’s around you . In life, just like in war, you cannot rely solely on what you bring—you must learn to seize opportunities, adapt to circumstances, and use every resource at your disposal.

Sun Tzu 15 The Skillful soldier 3:23

14 days ago3:23

3:23

Sun Tzu wrote, "The skillful soldier does not raise a second levy, neither are his supply-wagons loaded more than twice." A skilled warrior doesn’t waste resources. A skilled leader doesn’t drain their people. A skilled fighter doesn’t swing recklessly. Sun Tzu is teaching us something powerful here— efficiency wins battles, not endless effort.

Sun Tzu 14 Evils of War 3:23

15 days ago3:23

3:23

Sun Tzu wrote, "It is one who is thoroughly acquainted with the evils of war that can thoroughly understand the profitable way of carrying it on." Victory doesn’t belong to the naive. It belongs to those who have seen struggle, faced hardship, and truly understand what it means to be in battle. Sun Tzu reminds us that only those who have experienced the pain, the exhaustion, and the chaos of war can truly understand how to win without unnecessary destruction.…

Sun Tzu 13 Benefited from prolonged warfare 3:17

16 days ago3:17

3:17

Sun Tzu wrote, "There is no instance of a country having benefited from prolonged warfare." War—whether on the battlefield, in business, or in life—is meant to be won, not endlessly fought. Sun Tzu warns us that dragging out a battle only leads to exhaustion, depletion, and eventual collapse. Victory comes to those who strike with precision, not those who waste their strength in never-ending conflict. Reach out to us by email. info22media@gmail.com…

Sun Tzu 12 Stupid Haste 3:14

17 days ago3:14

3:14

Sun Tzu wrote, "Though we have heard of stupid haste in war, cleverness has never been seen associated with long delays." There is a fine line between reckless action and overcautious hesitation. Move too fast without strategy, and you fall into traps. Move too slow, and opportunities slip through your fingers. Sun Tzu warns us—while rushing in without a plan is foolish, waiting too long is just as dangerous. Reach out to us by email- info22media@gmail.com…

Sun Tzu 11 When your weapons are dulled 3:00

18 days ago3:00

3:00

Sun Tzu wrote, "When your weapons are dulled, your ardor damped, your strength exhausted and your treasure spent, other chieftains will spring up to take advantage of your extremity." Burnout is not just exhaustion—it is vulnerability. When you push yourself to the limit without rest, without recalibration, you don’t just risk failure—you risk being overtaken. Sun Tzu warns us that when we allow ourselves to become depleted, there will always be someone ready to seize the opportunity we were too tired to defend Reach out to us by email- info22media@gmail.com…
