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.

‘As I was coming down the road, I saw what I thought were the lights of an oncoming car, so I stopped to let it pass. After a few moments I flashed my lights but got no response so, thinking the car may have broken down in the snow or got stuck; I walked into the woods towards the lights to help. As I neared, I saw there had been an accident and ran to the car which had struck a telegraph pole, knocking it into the woods. I pulled the car door open …’ This is episode 60 – Part 2 – of the Haunted UK Podcast, and we’re back with another jam-packed episode of listeners’ stories – hold tight because this is The Crash and Other Listeners’ Stories.

Amelia lay awake for what seemed like hours, and with her windows closed but the shutters open, she decided to gaze out her window and admire the beautiful moonlit countryside. Amelia's bedroom window gave her an ideal view of the large lawn and the border of trees, which stood between Coglin Grange and the old graveyard; as her eyes scanned the silhouettes and shapes cast by the moonlight, she noticed that two small bright lights had now appeared in the treeline. These lights were moving through the trees and steadily towards the lawn … but what were they? ... Eye shine from an animal? ... Possibly a fox? … Amelia doubted it, as the lights appeared to be too high off the ground to be any animal … This is episode 58 of the Haunted UK Podcast, and in this episode, we're going in search of Vampires in the UK.

Our bedroom was small and narrow, and the door was about six feet from the end of our queen-sized bed. The noise was thunderous, three knocks, rapid and loud. Bang, bang, bang! ‘ Did you hear that? ’ I said, ‘ Yep ,’ Brian responded – his voice weird and bored. I had a moment of surprise and sat straight up in bed. Then it happened again. Bang, bang, bang! This time, I got up immediately and walked quickly to the door, figuring that one of the three kids, probably my seven-year-old daughter, was scared and needed me. I opened it and started to speak, then stopped when I saw no one was there. I stared into a large, well-lit open area that was completely empty. I could see the stairs ... also empty. My lizard brain hissed softly. ‘ Run ’ it said. This is episode 57 of the Haunted UK Podcast, and in this episode, we venture across the Atlantic to hear about a truly disturbing haunting … a Haunting in Oregon.

Dudley Castle Ghost Hunt - September 2024 1:03:25

On the 15th of September 2024, I attended a ghost hunt at the location of this shows very first episode way back in June 2021. That location was of course, Dudley Castle. Since an early age, I’d had a healthy interest in castles, and knowing that one with such great historical significance was just a short drive away from not only where I grew up, but also where I live now, always seemed surreal. But throughout my early years, I never really thought of Dudley Castle as a place where ghosts or the spirits of the dead, would haunt…but how wrong I was. Every now and then, an article would appear in a local newspaper, or a story would be heard on radio, retold by either the presenter or news reader, or if you were lucky, by the witness themselves. Was I about to finally witness...something paranormal???…
