Caregiver Trending podcast

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.

The Office Politics of Caregiving 27:53

för 28 weeks sedan27:53

27:53

There are over 50 million caregivers in the United States today, responsible for the care of an aging adult or a child with complex medical needs. But many of them, despite the added stress and pressure of the role, will not inform their team at work. Today, we discuss how caregivers make some of the most effective employees, but only if given the right flexible and understanding leadership and work environment. We also learn that the level of support from a supervisor or the amount of autonomy in a job position can significantly impact not only a employee’s stress level and overall mental and physical health, but their caregiving as well.
