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.

Send us a text This is a little taste of experiencing how to combine the power of breath, movement and believe to elevate your mindset and energy and 'breathe your goals to life.' You'll into the power of Breath and movement to release self-sabotaging and limiting thoughts/inner dialogue and create new inspired & empowering beliefs that lead to having the mindset of confidence/grit/resilience to take action and reach your goals.

Breath Practices for Healing Digestive Problems 9:28

Send us a text Research shows that chronic stress can be a major contributor to digestive disorders such as irritable bowel syndrome or chronic heartburn. You can begin to heal your stomach/gut issues with just a few minutes of calming breath practice before and after meals. You can't digest optimally when you're in a state of stress because your digestion slows or even stops when you're in 'fight or flight mode' so that your body can instead focus all its internal energy on that perceived threat or danger. So, when you're stressed and you eat your digestion is interrupted, often causing discomfort and often chronic digestive issues. Let mindful breath ease your stomach pain!

Send us a text It's been about a week since the fires began in L.A. and we've all been holding our breath in shock and devastation but now it feels like there's a tremendous mobilization of rescue efforts; food, clothes, logistics/next steps for those who have lost homes as well as those whose homes are still standing but not safe to live in yet. Action is good but pause needs to come first---grounding for a few minutes to restore your overworked 'fight or flight' nervous system. We can't heal while in a state of chronic stress. Pease take a few minutes of self-care and let's breathe together! Please share with someone who could use some mindful BREATH to feel better!…

Send us a text I believe that the world needs a Wake Up Call on how to Wake Up WELL– this is one of our biggest challenges as a culture. In this episode, I dive into one of the most critical shifts that our modern culture needs: reconnecting to ourselves before connecting to technology each morning when we wake up. The choices you make in the first minutes after waking shape your mindset, energy, and intentions for the day... and then the week, month and years. You've got to protect your mindset and energy first thing in the morning so you can walk through your day with clarity, intention and purpose. Let's explore how starting your day with mindful breath instead of mindless scrolling can transform not just your mornings, but your life! Plus a "Morning Breath Before Tech" Pledge for kids & teens!
