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.

The Purge continues on this month's episode with the second film in the franchise, "The Purge: Anarchy"! Does this one follow through on the promise of the first movie's premise? Does it dive further into the socioeconomic conflict at the heart of the idea? And Frank Grillo is basically The Punisher, right?…

We're closing out our look at the Final Destination series (so far) with this entry that has...a TWIST! We also consider whether this is the final destination for our own show now that Chucky has been cancelled. Where do we go from here? Listen and find out!

We're contiuning our run through the Final Destination series of films with the fourth entry in the franchise, an apparent attempt to inject some new energy into it...in 3D! So does it succeed, or does it crash and burn?

Can the follow-up to the first "Final Destination" live up to our memories of it? Obviously, there's the famous highway sequence, but what about what comes after that? And what does it add to the mythology of the franchise?

Season 3 of Chucky is in the can, and the finale takes us to some wild places. The Spirit Realm! A flaming White House! John Waters' Doll Mansion! Did the journey satisfy? And what actual final destination did we reach?

They promised that there would be blood, and there was! We wondered last week how the makers of "Chucky" could follow what seemed like an unfollowable episode, and, lo and behold, they did it.

Chucky season 3 has come back from its hiatus, and it's confirming some things about the world that we weren't so sure about before! Also, the President has kind of totally lost it.

We're finishing up our run of episodes about movies that episodes of "Chucky" are named after with this 1980 Brian De Palma thriller, which is often cited by Don Mancini as an influence! We try to figure out just how it influenced him despite being...very flawed by today's standards.
