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.

v’Shamroo Hey all. Here is the tune for the Sabbath Shacharit service when for the “Holiness of the Day”. The english is: And the Children of Israel shall keep the Sabbath, to make the Sabbath an eternal covenant for their generations. Between Me and the Children of Israel it is a sign forever that in six days HASHEM made heaven and earth, and on the seventh day He rested and was refreshed. Transliteration of the Hebrew: v’sham-roo b’nei yis-ra-el et ha-sha-bat, la-a-sot et ha-sha-bat l’do-ro-tam b’reet o-lam. b’nee u-vein b’nei yis-ra-el ot hee l’o-lam, kee shei-shet ya-meem a-sah Adonai et Ha-Sh-ma-yim v’et ha-a-retz, u-va-yom hash-vee-ee sha-bat va-yee-na-fash…

…Thanks to Kalli for the title. An exciting class, and a first of a kind for the Torah North Tzadikim – a remote session with the class from Bella Torah in North Carolina. The topic was veganism and the comments were many. The launching point was the podcast by Rabbis Jeremy Gimpel and Ari Abramowitz ( Is Veganism Good for the Soul ). In the podcast the radical Gary Yourofsky is held at a level of esteem – unfortunate given Gary’s comments that marginalize the uniqueness of mankind and attack the chosen people of G-d. Gary’s militant style of veganism, the one the podcast is discusses, denounces the consumption or use of any animal products. This is the most common definition of vegan (although it is a minority view that subscribes to the militant approach). It is a viewpoint born out of the premise that the killing of animals for any reason is morally wrong. I wouldn’t be surprised if such a worldview stems from a culture infused with the evolutionary principals that place man on par, as it relates to intrinsic worth, with the animal kingdom. With this in mind, we ought to consider the following from the podcast 1) It is inconsistent with the entire council of G-d to suggest that the animal sacrifice was a concession to allow man to eat meat. The instructions to use animal skins for the tabernacle also suggests that animal slaughter is acceptable at least in certain circumstances. 2) Abraham served cheese and meat to his guests (one being G-d Himself, Gen 18). There is no mention of him sacrificing the calf, so it seems like the slaughtering of animal for food is acceptable. Yeshua eats fish (Mar 14, Jn 21 and others) and lamb (His last Seder) during His time on earth further establishing the acceptable nature of meat consumption. 3) During the reign of Messiah we will eat meat as we share in the pesach (Luke 22:18) and make sacrifice at the temple (Zach 14:16, xref Num 29:12-39). In fact it is a Jewish understanding that Messiah will serve meat at the banquet celebrating his victory over leviathan (Isaiah 27:1, Psalm 74) 4) Clearly the traditional understanding is that the consumption and use of animal products was acceptable with the long history of animals used for Torah scrolls, techellit, tefillin. All this does not preclude the possibility some may choose to abstain from meat, at this time, in a way of dedication to Hashem. But it is done on false pretences if based on a belief that the killing of an animal is inherently immoral. Vegan Soul Vegan Soul mp3…

What is sin? Easily stated, but tricky to wrestle. We went through the spectrum of definitions used to describe sin, iniquity and transgression. We saw how John defined it: 1 John 3:4 Everyone who makes a practice of sinning also practices lawlessness; sin is lawlessness. Sin is lawlessness; I.e. Torahlessness. Torah is the standard, the target, the plumb line. Is the Torah missing anything? Does it require correction? Psalms 19:7-9 The law of the Lord is perfect, reviving the soul; the testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple; the precepts of the Lord are right, rejoicing the heart; the commandment of the Lord is pure, enlightening the eyes; the fear of the Lord is clean, enduring forever; the rules of the Lord are true, and righteous altogether. At the end of the discussion we made the tough determination that sin is the breaking of Hashem’s commandments. For those of us who discovered this walk after being a part of the visible expression of the church, have rooted out many errant teachings on what Hashem considers to be sin. We were handed a coat lies we struggle to shrug off. Over time we realize Shabbat, the feats, purity laws, dietary instructions, relational values are all still relevant to a believer in Messiah. But what may be less frequently realized are the instructions in the church which were taught to be laws, which in fact are not. Drinking alcohol, smoking tobacco,watching sports, playing cards, dancing…and many that I’m sure you can add, are taught by various groups as sinful activity. Unfortunate, since some are instructions in G-d’s word. Continuing to call these activities as sinful is a misrepresentation of G-d’s standard just as much as the omission of Shabbat and others. Clearly some of these activities or habits can be damaging physically if carried to the extreme. Yet, we should be careful to not confuse it with sinful behaviour. However, we must be aware that although a behaviour is not sinful it is possible it may lead to sin, or at least are not beneficial to our walk before Messiah. 1 Corinthians 10:23 Do All to the Glory of God “All things are lawful,” but not all things are helpful. “All things are lawful,” but not all things build up. We heard it said, we are not to add to or take away from the word of G-d. From where we have come from, we quickly see the beautiful flowers that were removed from the Torah and seek to replant them into the garden; however we must also recognize those weeds that have been added that can diminish the beauty of the garden. May your ways be pure before the Creator of the Universe. Wilderness of Sin Keynote Wilderness of Sin…
