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.

It takes a tough person to sit all day on a bucket on a frozen body of water and stare into a hole in the ice. It makes you wonder about their sanity!

Today, we'll meet such a man... a man with a passion for ice fishing. He's out on the ice every chance he gets. He'll share his passion for both ice fishing and for growing big whitetails.

A New Calling – Ray and Krysta Howell 25:01

Many professional athletes can only dream of retiring at the top of their game. A few have been able to do that but when they do go out, it is because they have reached an age where it is no longer possible to compete at the level they have in the past. Most of us would stay at the top as long as we possibly could. We claw and scratch to do all we can to not lose our place at the top. But there are a few that could go on and maintain top production for a much longer time and they step down anyhow. Today’s guest is one of those who stepped down, still holding world records in archery and powerlifting as well his business career. He has hunted all over the world and had collected nearly every species of big game with his bow and many of them scoring high in the record book. With all this, he walked away because of a new calling. A calling to serve children through archery, with an emphasis on teaching them the good news about Jesus Christ!…

There are special places and times in our lives that mean a lot to us. We cherish memories spent with others throughout our personal or married life that will always bring us back to where God did something special. One such place, nestled into Northwest Ontario Canada on the banks of Populus Lake… is called Rushing Wind Resort. This week we will meet a couple that first came to Rushing Wind Resort together 10 years ago on their honeymoon. The husband had been there several times and he wanted to show his wife where his life had changed. Now they are back for their 10th anniversary celebration. We’ll learn how God provided a father figure needed in the lives of some children and how that father figure later became a husband as well!…

What Makes A Man - Kyle Querec 40:57

So many times in our lives we put restraints on ourselves for adulthood. For the male of our species, it is possibly the hardest to live up to what others think should be truly a man. Having been raised in a Northern Michigan rural area, our host walked through trails to adventure that he felt showed him to be a man. The first time a boy catches a large fish or shoots a buck and brings it home to hear, "well done," it feels like a big step to being a man. But manhood is much more. There are also self-imposed hurdles that all men and women set to feel successful. On today’s program, we won’t hear too much about hunting and fishing, but we’ll hear a great story of a city boy who had finally made it in the music world, just to see that it was not all he had thought it was. He felt like there had to be more than the victories he had been striving for in life!…

Elk Camp Adventures - Pastor Paul Carlson 45:15

High country elk camps and the sounds of bugling bull elk draw 1000’s of hunters to the mountains each fall. People are different when they’re in the mountains. They drop their guard and relax more than most any place on earth. Relationships grow in amazing ways when we allow God to move in our lives. God has used the mountains in the life of today’s guest as well as the lives of those he has shared elk camps in the Colorado and Wyoming mountains. We’ll hear of miracles that were the answers to prayer.…

Every one of us has a calling in life. For many of us, our calling is self-directed and, if we allow, many are God given. Callings can change from year to year as we move into new places in life. On today’s program, we will meet with a man who has been called to reach out to disciple men. He loves the outdoors and enjoys spending time with others on the water and in the woods… especially in those times sharing what God is doing in his life and the lives of others. God is using this friend to get others to places where they can share their relationship with God and to others as well. He is stepping up in his calling and shares how you can as well!…

To some, it might seem dangerous or foolish but to others, it's something they look forward to all year. People lose their trucks, their ATVs and occasionally even their lives doing it, yet each year they venture out on frozen lakes, ponds rivers and streams to pull a fish through a hole drilled through the ice. It takes a tough person to sit all day on a bucket on a frozen body of water and stare into a hole in the ice. It makes you wonder about their sanity! Today, we'll meet such a man... a man with a passion for ice fishing. He's out on the ice every chance he gets. He'll share his passion for both ice fishing and for growing big whitetails.…

The True King - Johnny King & Jay Fish 48:16

Deer hunting is probably the number one hunting sport in the world. In the 2021/2022 season alone, more than 6 million deer were harvested in the United States. Most of those deer were never scored and a small percentage of them were scored and entered into a record book of some kind. Today, we’ll revisit a story of a world record whitetail buck that was taken in 2006 in Grant County, Wisconsin. We will hear from the mouth of the lucky hunter who was lucky enough to pull the trigger and down the massive buck. Then we’ll hear how that buck became one of the most important things in another man’s life and how it caused strife in his life before it finally pointed him to Jesus Christ.…

On The Right Track - Joe Wolfe 57:02

Many of us grew up going to hunting or fishing camps from our youth. For many, it’s been a lifelong tradition to hunt with a bunch of others. Our host grew up where several hunters came together to work as a team to harvest deer. Then there are others who would much rather hunt and fish on their own. There are blessings and challenges in either style of hunting, But in our daily lives, we need to understand that there are times to seek out God one on one… digging into his word and spending time in prayer. On today’s show, we meet up with a good friend of our host and the two of them talk about different ways of deer hunting, with a focus on tracking mature bucks in big woods settings. This is a solitary sport that takes a lot of stamina and concentration… But is so very rewarding in the end!…

A Biker’s World - Jim and Barbara Terry 39:48

Hunters and fishermen have a serious passion for their sports. If you ask a deer hunter what their favorite day of the year is, most would say opening day of hunting season. If you ask a fisherman what their favorite day of the years is, you’ll hear opening day of fishing season. Many outdoors people also share another passion; riding motorcycles. When many of us think about bikers, we think about biker “gangs” and all that goes along with that crowd. But there is a different side to bikers, and that is a giving side. On this program, you'll hear about how giving and caring the biking community can be!…

A New Beginning- Rob and Greg Knauf 1:01:34

Life is a series of new beginnings. Each morning when we wake up, it is a new opportunity to live for the Lord. This week we move from 2024 to 2025 and we don’t know what the year will bring. It’s often said that we don’t know what the future holds, but we know who holds the future. The God that created everything… Is the one who we can count on to see us through whatever lies ahead for each of us. As we move into the new year, we thought it would be fun to bring our most listened to and most requested program back for an encore appearance. This program has more laughing than all of the rest of the programs combined. If you have never heard it, you will be greatly entertained and if you have heard it before… you will laugh even harder this time! More importantly with the laughter is the story of new beginnings with the two brothers who join us. They share how they went from a life of religion to a life of a relationship with Jesus Christ because of the boldness of a good friend and his persistence in sharing the Gospel!…

Those of us who live in a time of immediate information have no idea what it would be like to live in a place or a time where we have no idea what is going on outside our little world. The Bible talks about how in end times, travel and knowledge will increase. If we look back over the last 100 years, travel has increased at amazing rates. There was a time, not to long ago, when most people rarely traveled 100 miles from home. Many of us travel across the country or around the world all the time. Today, we will learn about a chief from the deep jungles of South America and how he went from being filled with demons to becoming filled with the Holy Spirit. Most of us live in a sheltered atmosphere!…

There is a great blessing in both the young and the old as we enjoy the outdoors together. One of the things that we have lost in recent times is the passing of wisdom from one generation to the next. There are few places where it is easier to share in these times than in a fishing boat or hunting blind. We often fail to take advantage of the opportunities to share in these special times. On today's program, we will join a grandfather and grandson on a very special fishing trip in Northwest Ontario, at Rushing Winds Camp!…

Our God is a God of new beginnings. He provided for so many people throughout the Bible, in the new and old testaments. He restored so many individuals, including king David, Moses, Joseph and all of Joseph’s family. Many of our listeners are going through a tough time right now, having lost a loved one or maybe in the process of saying goodbye to someone. We understand that these are things that we will never get over… But with God’s help, we can get through them victoriously.…

It seems that life at times is nothing more than a series of one loss after another, from beginning to end. That seems to be a given. It’s how we respond to those losses that gets us through. For those who have their hope in Jesus Christ, we have the only chance for peace in the midst of life’s losses. Today’s guest has had to deal with some terrible losses in his life and he has gotten through them. As you will hear him say, we get through our losses, but we never get over them.…
