LikedArtificial 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.

Alan Robert of Life of Agony joins the show this week. Alan and Josh talk about the new Life of Agony album "A Place Where There's No More Pain". The guys discuss Alan's artistic side including his graphic novels and adult coloring book. Alan speaks openly about Mina Caputo and the changes the vocalist has gone through. They also go over the time Whitfield Crane was in the band and the possibility of Alan taking over the vocals at one point. Alan tells great stories of the shooting the Through and Through video and touring with Carcass, Korn and Ozzy. This episode also marks the beginning of Mike G joining the podcast as a co-host. Mike lets Josh know about his love of Ugly Kid Joe and this may be the last time Mike is allowed to pick the Talk Toomey cover of the week, which is Ugly kid Joe covering Black Sabbath's N.I.B. The final thought for the week is a discussion about the Roach Koach Podcast. The hosts have both fallen down the rabbit hole of that great show. ------------------------------------ GUEST LINKS: Killogy Alan Robert CONTACT: Email Talk Toomey Talk Toomey Facebook Talk Toomey Twitter SPONSORS: PUCK HCKY STORE: Talk Toomey Merch Talk Toomey Logo Tee DONATE: Patreon Paypal Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/talktoomey?fan_landing=true)…
