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.

Through Jesus’ death and resurrection has provided us a way to to have fellowship with Him and each other. The Communion Table gives us an opportunity to love God and others.

Having taken aim at several controversies in the Corinthians church, Paul now takes up the most concerning of them all, namely, some were denying the resurrection. Paul, with piercing logic, proves how the resurrection is not an optional extra but the heart of the gospel message, without which, the entire Christian faith falls apart like a wagon wheel with no lynch pin.…
Paul concludes his section on Spiritual gifts in the church by emphasizing that the gifts of the Spirit should be used to build up the church in an orderly manner. He instructs the Corinthians to avoid chaos by ensuring that everyone speaks in turn and that their contributions are constructive. He reminds them that this orderly worship reflects God’s nature of peace and promotes unity within the church body.…
Paul emphasizes the importance of prophecy as a spiritual gift that should be desired and valued. He explains to the Corinthians how prophecy has the power to build up the church body in more understandable ways than speaking in tongues. Unlike uninterpreted tongues, which benefit only the speaker, prophecy serves the entire community. He highlights that while prophecy is primarily a gift for believers, it can also bring non-believers toward salvation.…
In possibly the most famous passage in the whole New Testament, Paul urges the Corinthians, who were using spiritual gifts selfishly and for their own benefit, to adopt a radically different approach. He wants them to use spiritual gifts to serve others and not for personal gain, to shift from selfishness to selflessness to mirror Christ's love. He also stresses that while spiritual gifts are temporary, love is eternal, and we see the priority of love, the pattern of love and the permanence of love.…
Paul longs for the church to use the gifts of the Spirit, given graciously by God, for the unity and upbuilding of the church. He highlights God as a gracious gift giver and the Spirit as the one who exalts the name of Christ. Though there are many different kinds of gifts, they are from the same Spirit and are given for the common good of the body, which is the church.…
