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.

In this episode Bill Wolfer argues that failure is an important part of the learning process, an unavoidable feature of the road to success. Bill Wolfer is an assistant professor of Computer Science, chair of the Department of Computing, and Director of the Center for Innovation and Entrepreneurship. This episode has a special feature, a message from the Seventh-day Adventist General Conference President, Elder Ted Wilson. He thanks the Andrews community for our service to humanity, our actions to bless others in our local community and around the world. And he encourages us to continue to find new ways to serve others as an expression of our faith. This presentation by Bill Wolfer on creativity, failure, and success is the final episode of Season 2 of the Andrews Speaks podcast. Thank you for listening to this season as we addressed a number of important issues—change, mental and physical health, math, physics, environmental activism, racial injustice, and creativity.
