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.

Suikoden | E66: War Touches Everyone [The Legacy, the Remaster, and Aidan Moher's New Book] 1:26:38

לפני 11 hours1:26:38

1:26:38

Surprise! We’re back to season four with a very special 66th episode. We’re joined by Aidan Moher to discuss his upcoming book on Suikoden and Suikoden II and listen to some of Aidan’s thoughts on Suikoden I&II HD Remaster. In finer detail, that includes: accepting Suikoden pronunciations, measuring Suikoden’s place in RPG history, wondering if RPG sequels have a place in today’s game space, exiting battles in five seconds, filling a world with life and activity, totaling the cost of violence, interpreting Suikoden differently as adults, comfortably adjusting to sprite changes, making questionable decisions about what to remaster and what to leave behind, failing a background check, experiencing existential dread in a remastered Pizza Hut, smoothing out some legends of localization, and remaining true to piss. You must still Determine or Cancel. Find Aidan and his work at: Bluesky Astrolabe Fight, Magic, Items: The History of Final Fantasy, Dragon Quest, and the Rise of Japanese RPGs in the West 00:00:00 Intro 00:03:50 Suikoden’s Beating Heart 00:15:36 Suikoden’s Stellar Moments 00:24:02 Let’s Make a Water Margin RPG 00:39:29 Favorite Stars of Destiny 00:46:42 Pronouncing Jowy 00:48:00 Bespoke Animation Preservation 00:51:23 Remaster?

לפני 3 ימים1:04:35

1:04:35

That freakin’ kid has no appreciation for capitalism. You freakin’ kids have appreciation for defining the rules of a cave, becoming the Chad of socialism, landing on Star Search, casting spells on the lake, tossing fireballs at fishermen, recording three distinctive la la la songs in Lann, playing booger barter, appointing a tormenter, using rage energy to turn into a Witcher, wondering if Victor is either supportive or critical of feminism, fondly recalling projectile vomit, and rhyming moss with boss.

לפני 10 ימים1:19:20

1:19:20

Cool, man. We cool men and a robot are socking a cheater in the gut, suffering a honker punch, getting duped by a lying treasure chest, allowing the fascists to pass through, teeming with the criminal element, moving drunk Kyle around the map, sleeping on a rock bed, building a jail in the basement, eating bugs, appreciating milfs, wondering if mountain fish is fresh, sashaying into a bedroom, smelling some sheets, reflecting people on mucus, becoming most entirely berserk and uncontrollable, and letting the brewskis run their course. I bet he could beat up all of you. 00:00:00 Elemental Gearbolt 00:01:53 Intro 00:03:49 Meribia Mop Up 00:07:35 Nanza Pass East 00:11:32 Nanza 00:15:35 Dirt Surface NPCs 00:19:05 Nanza Basement NPCs 00:30:17 Nanza Upper Level NPCs 00:39:42 Chasing Kyle 00:46:24 Jail 00:55:24 Post Jail 00:59:53 Real Net 01:07:48 Outro Patreon: patreon.com/retroam Bluesky: @retrogradeamnesia.bsky.social YouTube: www.youtube.com/@RetrogradeAmnesia E-Mail: podcast@retrogradeamnesia.com Website: www.retrogradeamnesia.com…

לפני 17 ימים1:05:18

1:05:18

Luck had nothing to do with it. You made the choice to listen as we’re applying Goku logic, admiring fashionable mage robes, ticking a clock, cosigning a case to a charge, going back to the pool, hearing rumors of a fake dragon master, leaving some dragon master business unfinished, falling asleep in class, letting Luna meet Mia, imagining Ghaleon vs Dyne 1v1 Final Destination, refusing to read books, detouring into Heathcliff, and following Christ’s twelve sidequests.

לפני 24 ימים1:06:12

1:06:12

Are you prepared for your journey of discovery? Learnings must include debating parlor admission, playing a lute like a weird asshole, conceiving destiny music, dreaming the same dream every day, going through the change of life, suffering provincialism, smelling of sea salt and dragon dung, freaking out the corrections officers, literally pulling the strings, sleeping past magic school, inviting a depressed girl on a dragon quest, and violating the sanctity of a bed chamber. Mmmm, it’s, no bother. 00:00:00 Intro00:03:04 Vane Magic Guild 00:05:50 Parlor Tricks 00:19:56 Magic Guild NPCs 00:39:52 Mia 00:55:25 Real Net 01:01:10 Outro Patreon: patreon.com/retroam Bluesky: @retrogradeamnesia.bsky.social YouTube: www.youtube.com/@RetrogradeAmnesia E-Mail: podcast@retrogradeamnesia.com Website: www.retrogradeamnesia.com…

1:15:38

May the goddess Althena shower you in her blessings. May you take a shower while blowing up Affleck’s head, mastering skills through perseverance, erasing exhaustion with magic, sucking off a healing stick for free, gaining testicles in Spanish, dropping an anal probe reference, beating up fungus, realizing only Vane may have electricity, loathing Luna Jealousy, realizing there’s evil in the towers, refusing to shine Althena’s light, finding recorded adultery, reading all the god damned books in the library, and never assuming the legends are true.

לפני 5 weeks1:26:56

1:26:56

Still your tongue, cat. And activate your ears, as this time we’re receiving Japanese turd confirmation, roughing up Dross with kicks and pows, self-realizing limitations, sassing up “driveway,” getting ripped off on Black Rose Street, deploring a PMS joke, exposing beastwoman babes, talking on the world map, blowing the Vane reveal on PSP, stroking Nash’s ego, stretching out a floor mat, burying the dragon tribe, conjuring memories of Phacia, and realizing Phacia has red eyes. “And I’m always been comfortable with my body.” 00:00:00 Video 00:01:54 Intro 00:04:14 Sega CD Sewage 00:06:44 Goodbye, Ramus 00:21:27 Meriba NPCs 00:25:11 Black Rose Street NPCs 00:29:42 Docks 00:31:50 Mel’s Mansion 00:35:37 Fun Traveling 00:40:20 Spring of Transmission 00:46:48 Althena’s Shrine 00:58:34 Phacia Room 01:12:06 Real Net 01:18:46 Outro Patreon: patreon.com/retroam Bluesky: @retrogradeamnesia.bsky.social YouTube: www.youtube.com/@RetrogradeAmnesia E-Mail: podcast@retrogradeamnesia.com Website: www.retrogradeamnesia.com…

לפני 6 weeks1:10:15

1:10:15

It’s a dead man's party. That’s what podcasts are called on Lunar, where we’re realizing no underclass exists in Meribia, understanding Mel only trusts beastmen with weapons, verifying interspecies erotica, debating ho ho ho vs bwa ha ha, fist fighting a Hero, slandering lawyers and accountants, cringing at crushing on Jessica, locking tighter than a tenement in South Central, leaving a dent in your skull, slipping on drool, becoming victimized, getting son’d by Mel, dealing with The Guild of Brett, pushing buttons to make bridges, slaying a dragon, and having no doubt that she is the one. Now you have a friend in the Dragon Diamond business. 00:00 Intro 03:02 Mel’s Mansion 12:48 Hell Mel 18:35 Fighting Mel 21:54 Mel’s Mansion II 33:22 Selling The Diamond 39:03 We’ve Been Had 44:08 Merbian Sewers 50:14 Water Dragon 54:41 Dross’ Humiliation Ritual 59:49 Real Net 01:05:56 Outro Patreon: patreon.com/retroam Bluesky: @retrogradeamnesia.bsky.social YouTube: www.youtube.com/@RetrogradeAmnesia E-Mail: podcast@retrogradeamnesia.com Website: www.retrogradeamnesia.com…

1:11:24

You kids are wack. And our hearts are content as we’re wondering if Mel took Meribia by force, placating the masses, lying to children, having a big dream, entering Dross negotiations, partying till we puke, knowing dragons are real, practicing swordsmanship, seeing our shoes under her bed, inventing meteorology, foreshadowing the necessity of magic, gender coding Luna to clean things, freaking out over a wig, and meeting a an ominous fortune teller. You’re a magician now. 00:00 Miniseries 6 Winner 02:47 Intro 04:26 Meribia Buildings! 15:32 Dross’ Shop 20:13 Meribia Port 23:57 Black Rose Street 34:54 Black Rose Street Houses 43:03 Royce 59:04 Real Net 01:02:48 Outro Patreon: patreon.com/retroam Bluesky: @retrogradeamnesia.bsky.social YouTube: www.youtube.com/@RetrogradeAmnesia E-Mail: podcast@retrogradeamnesia.com Website: www.retrogradeamnesia.com…

1:03:30

Get up, stumblebut, we got jerkin’ off to do. Nope, sorry, wrong podcast. On this one we’re kink shaming a flying cat, valuing experiences over possessions, sleeping on a cot, marveling at the Meribian metropolis, questioning if turds are monsters or monsters are turds, wondering if Meribia is under mob rule, using a traveler’s cheque, role-playing with some kiddos, discovering a deliberate typo, citing inspiration from Playboy, and protecting every man’s right to be drunk and sexist. An extra hour of shore leave is the difference between getting drunk and getting arrested. 00:00 Drugs Chicken 02:18 Intro 03:29 Tumultuous Morning 07:18 Morning Dialogue 20:09 Arriving in Meribia 26:45 Meribian Outdoor NPCs 38:11 Seagull Tavern 50:13 Real Net 55:36 Outro Patreon: patreon.com/retroam Bluesky: @retrogradeamnesia.bsky.social YouTube: www.youtube.com/@RetrogradeAmnesia E-Mail: podcast@retrogradeamnesia.com Website: www.retrogradeamnesia.com…

I won’t ferget your help. In fact, because of it, we’re introducing a fresh multiverse theory, confirming script suppositions, remembering we can’t sail without light, parting ways at the boat ride, climbing our big pole, eating fish every day, crying out for a minimart, changing out of boy mode inside of Luna mind, thinking clean dirty thoughts, stowing away Brett, chasing the stick off the porch, doing the Dew, questioning the feasibility of fireflies, and localizing a song based on nothing but vibes.

What the flippin’ hotdog is going on? Oh, I know, we’re exploring the nature of hags, visiting angelfire, finding an idiot in a dummy trap, twirling a comb, refusing the oxford comma, boiling a cauldron of animals, equating a hag to a witch, detesting backwoods inbreds, failing the ice mace quest, remaining calm while a monster wreaks havoc, fighting bugs naked, alliterating into oblivion, realizing Alex is the main character, feeling like dead weight, and helping Luna make a curious choice.

I don’t wash my hands, so I’m always hungry. Come along with us on a fantastic fart voyage while we’re reeking of fish, becoming the Orca, leaning of Luna’s reputation, filching a chicken, encountering the beastmen, noticing the absence of lore outside of the Four Heroes, hinting at a race war, cruising for a bruising, speaking without dentures, lacking sufficient statistics, offering edible toe cheese, getting drunk off of smells, losing a coin toss, discovering it was all rigged, and missing a secret Laike. If you see the captain, will you tell him he’s a moron?

That’s that. Do whatever you want, don’t mind me, son. Just start learning what a chow bell is, receiving money from mom, wondering if Nall is a hallucination, dreaming the dark, hearing a song on the breeze, regretting the tone of the official guide, envying the children, razzing Ramus into oblivion, sleeping in the shed, clearing up “rump acne,” standing up to destiny, denying our Christ up to three times, refusing to take children seriously, finding our ho-ho-ho-man, and waking up without our savior father. Never settle for less than anything you’ve ever dreamt of achieving. 00:00 Monster Hunter? | 02:17 Intro | 03:50 Weird Woods | 06:37 Welp, Back To Burg | 12:40 Premonitions | 21:02 Goodbye, Burg | 28:56 Weird Woods | 35:05 Laike | 42:10 Campfire | 45:36 Weird Woods (Sega CD) | 49:32 Real Net | 59:04 Outro Patreon: patreon.com/retroam Bluesky: @retrogradeamnesia.bsky.social YouTube: www.youtube.com/@RetrogradeAmnesia E-Mail: podcast@retrogradeamnesia.com Website: www.retrogradeamnesia.com…

You have somehow earned Episode 005, where we’re touching on some healing stones, washing out a bridge, traversing across the battlefield, grunting at the sight of a human, appreciating bitmap cut-scenes, referencing Mega Man 8 (derogatory), rewarding boys with special turds, baiting baboons into ice blocks, possessing green eyes, receiving destiny instructions, questing for the prize of manhood, realizing Dad was Ramus, immediately trying to unload a precious diamond, and molesting a teddy bear.
