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.

This week in anguish: - Misery loves company, so we are delighted to be joined by Canuck superfan, devoted listener, Vancouver expat, and Thunderbird grinder Alissa McArthur! - The Canucks have just concluded their third-best regular season of all time and were just one game away from the final four...so you better believe we devote significant time to talking about Troy from Richmond, Jacob from Gävle, and Nik from Moscow. - Tristan presents his cockamamie General Theory of Petey Bitterness, while Alissa drinks a bit more deeply from the cup of wisdom and sobers us again. - Hmm, important point of order: Do we actually even like playoff hockey? Won't somebody please think of the Quintin? - We're cool, we're calm, we're gonna be OK...just as long as we come up with the perfect local intro song to counterract our sometimes somnambulant starts.

This week in anguish: - The first (and almost certainly last) mid-game episode of TWiA! Crow along vaingloriously with every Brock Boeser snipe! (Even those that turn out to actually be Elias Lindholm's.) Groan plosively with every indignity visited upon our beautiful boys! Strain to hear the off-mic musings of Racquel Rabey! - Ardella is off to Scandihoovia for the next month and bit, so applications from any prospectively scabby co-hosts are welcomed.

This week in anguish: - "Way to go boys! Never doubted you for a second," said your trusty co-hosts while hooked up to an IV drip due to perspiration-related dehydration. - When you move the goal-posts enough, everything becomes a three-pointer (Does that work as metaphor? Look, we barely even understand hockey.) - Tristan short-lists the best play-by-play calls of Pyoos Suter's series-winning goal. (Does that qualify as a pun? Probably not.) - Time to better get to know more about the historic hardware we might be taking home this season, with our chief archivist reporting in on the Vezina, Adams, Norris, and Byng.

This week in anguish: - Look, in the regular season these episode descriptions are mildly useful because you never know what vaguely Canuckian rabbit-hole we'll be crawling down to escape the indignities of the week that was, but in the playoffs? We do actually talk about the here and now, we promise. - That doesn't mean we won't still make time for an exposé on Richard Brodeur's 1982 save percentage and long-forgotten minutiae about Linden's glass-smashing hit. - Let us ape a little bit of Big Zee's sangfroid sass and go boldly together towards Game 5.

- You're a captain, Quintin, and don't let nobody tell ya different. - Much like the Kübler-Ross stages of grief, the thoughts of your intrepid co-hosts are often misconstrued as being sequential. Can you tell we're getting a bit punchy up here on this playoff precipice? It's the podcast that aims for mildly amusing but has to settle for hysterical. - What should the Rogers Arena staff, our fellow fans, and society at large be doing and/or not doing at every single moment in time so as to not attract our ire and/or disdain? Find out all this and more in our even-keeled and good-natured review of our recent in-person entrapment at the hands of the LA Kings. Thanks for listening!

This week in anguish: - What do we want? - Playoff glory or at least to know the particular nature of our ignominious defeat! - When do we want it? - Now! ( - Yes, we're having a bit of trouble enjoying the remainder of this regular season.) - What do Ilya Mikheyev, the Babych brothers, this other Babich , Belarussian bazas, and Percy Williams have in common? That's a question Ardella will be sure to answer just as soon as she's finished hand-tabulating the grimmest list on Olympedia . - Tristan talks back to the radio. If you can throw a hat, you can throw a jersey. Yes, we are actually uniquely hard done by. And for heaven's sake: grow up, John Tortorella! Thanks for listening!

This week in anguish: - Your favourite co-hosts Obstinate and Pliable demonstrate great resilienciness by poking their heads cautiously out of the slough to celebrate Petey's big payday. - We gird ourselves for the upcoming trade deadline by surveying the best last-minute impulse buys in Canuck history, which quickly reveals itself to be a history of best trade deadline deals in Pat Quinn history. - Who lacks all conviction in the postseason and who is full of passionate intensity? Mere anarchy is loosed upon the show as Tristan presents his definitive list of the Clutch vs. the Nahsomuch. - The third Sedin and the third Courtnall should probably start a support group for tertiary brethren. - Broken fourth wall update: Ardella and Rachel worked on a Trevor Linden jigsaw puzzle after recording, and Tristan('s goalie) won his beer league playoff game.

Are you kidding me!? Aaaaaagh!", flipping over a coaster, and stomping out of the room. - Look, we remain cautiously optimistic for our seemingly singular swing at the mini-golf windmill, but this week brought back up a feeling or two. - Shortly after pointing out his criminal brow shape, Tristan frames Noah Juulsen as a question. - Ardella's Media Miscellany provides third-degree buzz marketing for Tanti Interiors Ltd and offers an excitingly unpaid voice acting opportunity to Daniel Wagner.

This week in anguish: - A milestone half-marathon and a souvenir Covid bout kept us off the airwaves for much longer than intended, but you better believe we couldn't resist talking about...Petey being the best at passing the puck into some buckets or whatever. - Ardella welcomes Elias the Third with a bevy of fun facts. Did you know a zebulon is a term for a digression so severe that it sends one careening through the lists of most-popular Swedish baby names? - The lamps of Kuzmenko's megawatt smile have gone out in Vancouver, and we shall not see them lit again in our lifetimes. Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn. We will remember them. - Tristan's lays out the spread for a bric-à-brac picnic including Trevor's trees , Jyrki's groceries , BMo's law , JT and Co's jean jacket , Johnny's brevity , and of course Thatcher's hug snub .

Are we really? - Dive boldly, often baldly, and beer-gutted into halcyon summers with Howie Meeker's NHL Showdown. - Annie get your G.O.A.T., we're kicking it into square one and firing up the etymology wagon. - We blow it up and start all over again with the Honey Badger.

This week in anguish: - The Hughes Bowl brought up, in addition to some hurt feelings for our primordinate son, the issue of strong mom genes. Exhibit A: the Jagrs , and the Jagrs with Cup . Exhibit B: the Hugheses. - We heard from Jim Rutherford for the first time in a long time. Ardella basks in the sweet sounds of regret, while Tristan would like Jim to re-check his Rolodex for monied Vancouver property developers with a vested interest in helping his hockey team. - Almost nearly totally passes without mention of one Roberto L. - There's a new All-Star skills competition format and the rules, for one of our hosts, at least, are an intoxicating mixture of copious and frivolous. - Our helmets are too dull (but may be on the precipice of being too shiny), our emboweled wine bar is at once too empty and too extant, and our yellow is all wrong. No, there is nothing we can't whinge about. Thanks for listening! This episode supports the Hockey4Youth foundation and HerosHockey .…

This week in anguish: - Various and sundry topics after a two-and-one week in which the wins felt pale and wan in comparison to coming up snake eyes against Vegas yet again. - We head back to 1994 for a black-red-yellow song suggestion , and then stay there to bask in the hyper-local, Canuckian invention of Cameo 1.0 that was Rob's Stag . - We learn that Zadorov, like Petey before him, is a surprisingly dyed-in-the-wool Canucks fan. What would a team of all Canuckleheads look like? - We look back to 2019 and chortle with Epimethean hindsight at the Hockey News' projection for this year's roster . Thanks for listening!

What's scarier than a silent Hög? How many Crawfords work for the Canucks? And ain't it just nice to hear that Trevor still cares? - The PWHL has no plan, but that's still leagues ahead of "plans" like the NHL's anti-sensical take on diversity, equity, and inclusion.
