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.

1:23:00

Send us a text Luminous Emptiness Welcome back to Seekers and Finders Podcast, where we explore the mysteries of consciousness, the nature of spirituality, and the many paths that lead to enlightenment. Today, we’re honored to have a truly special guest—author, speaker, and transformational coach, Irene Kendig. Her work dives deep into the nature of consciousness, and the boundless potential for awakening that exists within each of us. In this episode, we’ll be exploring the concept of Luminous Emptiness—a phrase that might sound paradoxical at first, but one that holds profound meaning in the spiritual journey. What does it mean to dissolve into the vast, radiant space of being? How does understanding the nature of emptiness free us from fear, suffering, and limitation? And what insights can we gain from those who have crossed the threshold of life and death? Irene brings a wealth of wisdom to this conversation, offering perspectives that challenge conventional thinking and invite us into a deeper, more expansive understanding of existence. So, if you’re ready to explore the nature of consciousness and the liberating power of spiritual awareness, stay tuned—this is a conversation you won’t want to miss.

Send us a text Harry Rob Bruner’s spiritual journey is a significant aspect of his life and creative work. In his solo show, Nephew of the Universe, Bruner delves into his experiences growing up within a renowned spiritual organization that his family helped establish.

Bruner’s performance offers a heartfelt and, at times, whimsical narrative of his twenty years in this Queens, New York-based meditation group. He candidly shares the challenges he faced, including the struggle with celibacy”a condition of discipleship”and his internal conflict between spiritual commitments and personal desires, such as his ambition to become a rock star. The show combines music, visuals, and storytelling to provide insight into his unique upbringing and the complexities of balancing spiritual life with personal aspirations.

Send us a text “Music, how and why it can pull you out of a normal day to day consciousness into something more profound and timeless.” Phil recently moved from Seattle, a town where he'd lived since 1990 (which was the dawn of Seattle-born grunge!), and a town he swore he'd never leave, to the much smaller Port Townsend on the Olympic Peninsula, about 2 1/2 hours away. Turns out Port Townsend's music scene, while smaller and slightly less prestigious than Seattle's, is vibrant and active and much more accessible. Currently he's playing cello with the local orchestra, and also playing fusion with local musicians. As well as his ongoing work on guitar supporting a young singer in Mexico City. He is also a self-proclaimed cello-sticker mogul. He can be heard on The Mahavishnu Orchestra’s albums Apocalypse and Visions of the Emerald Beyond Spandrel - original instrumental fusion - cello, guitar, drums https://spandrel-fusion.bandcamp.com/...

Tim Cliss - Nonduality...a conversation 1:21:17

12 weeks назад1:21:17

1:21:17

Send us a text Tim always wanted to know. He was a seeker, and a questioner. As a child he was one of those annoying kids who always asked "why?" He grew up in a small village in The Fens in Cambridgeshire where he still lives today. Loving sport he became a PE teacher, but secretly always wanted to dance. One day whilst leading a group of students on a hike in Derbyshire he was walking up a rocky wooded hill. ‍ He stopped. Time stopped. Afterwards he described it as, "I knew the rocks and trees and they knew me. I was the rocks and trees and they were me." That's not really how it was, but that seemed like the only way he could make sense of it. After that 'revelation', things were never the same. His seeking was now focussed on finding an answer to what had seemed to have been revealed. ‍ He found the message of non-duality, and was bitten. There was immediate and undeniable resonance. There was absolutely no doubting that this was it! There followed many, exciting, frustrating and painful years of being a non-duality addict. He bought every book that even vaguely resonated, watched endless YouTube, promiscuously flitting from one speaker to another looking for the secret nugget that would lead to liberation. He learnt a lot. He understood a lot. It became obvious that all his knowledge and understanding were worthless, and he fell into despair. The despair lasted, until it stopped. In its place was emptiness, peace, silence, and love, but mostly emptiness. Of course, none of that happened.
