In this episode, we explore a bold new vision for artificial intelligence, one that moves beyond the current neocortex-inspired focus of large language models like ChatGPT. Instead of relying solely on high-level reasoning and language, the discussion centers around a “bottom-up” approach grounded in biology and evolution. Drawing inspiration from the brain’s older, more primal structures, the episode introduces the i...
This episode looks at three leading theories shaping the future of artificial intelligence. First, it looks at Large Language Models (LLMs), which argue that mastering language is the key to intelligence. Then, it explores the “Thousand Brains” theory, a neuroscience-inspired view that sees intelligence as the product of many cortical columns independently modeling the world through sensory input. Finally, it looks at...
In this episode, we investigate the world of self-learning and continuously adapting AI systems—technologies that allow machines to learn, retain, and apply knowledge over time without constant human input. The discussion breaks down key concepts like lifelong learning, incremental learning, and how they form the building blocks of future Artificial General Intelligence (AGI). Listeners will learn about core algorithm...
Podcast Summary:
In this episode, we explore the growing emotional bonds forming between humans and artificial intelligence. Drawing from recent research, including a groundbreaking study from Waseda University, we unpack how people experience attachment to AI through lenses traditionally used in human attachment theory—like anxiety and avoidance. The discussion emphasizes that while AI lacks true emotions, humans...
This episode explores the world of embeddings, mathematical representations that allow Large Language Models (LLMs) like ChatGPT to “think” in thousands of dimensions. While humans are limited to conceptualizing in three dimensions, LLMs operate in 2048 or more, using embeddings to encode meaning and capture semantic relationships between words.
The discussion contrasts this form of statistical pattern recognition wit...
In this episode, we look at AlphaEvolve, a breakthrough system from Google DeepMind that’s redefining how AI contributes to scientific and algorithmic discovery. Blending evolutionary computation with powerful language models like Gemini, AlphaEvolve operates in a self-improving loop - generating, testing, and refining code to tackle complex, human-defined problems.
We explore how AlphaEvolve has already made headlines...
In this episode, we explore Google Stitch, an experimental AI tool powered by Gemini models that’s aiming to reshape how user interfaces are conceived and built. Stitch lets users generate UI layouts and front-end code from simple text or image prompts, acting as a rapid prototyping engine to bridge the gap between design ideas and functional code.
We discuss how the tool accelerates early-stage ideation and ...
In this episode, we explore how artificial intelligence is set to reshape the job market over the coming decade, from 2025 to 2035. We unpack the dual forces at play—automation that may displace certain roles, and the simultaneous creation of new opportunities driven by AI innovation. Rather than a net loss, the data points toward a shift: a changing landscape where skills, not jobs, are the currency of the future.
We ...
In this episode, we explore how AI is fundamentally transforming search, moving beyond traditional keyword-based results to conversational, synthesized answers powered by generative models. We unpack the rapid adoption of features like AI Overviews and the rise of AI chatbots as preferred tools for information retrieval, reflecting a major shift in user behavior.
But this transformation isn’t without consequences. We d...
In this episode, we explore how Artificial Intelligence is transforming the face of modern warfare, from battlefield tactics to global strategy. We dive into the current military applications of AI across intelligence gathering, autonomous drones and robots, logistics, cybersecurity, and command and control systems.
We also examine how leading powers—including the U.S., China, and Russia—and alliances like NATO are inv...
This podcast explores the rise of Sensor Machine Learning (Sensor ML) as a powerful evolution in embedded system design. Traditional sensor fusion methods like Kalman filters often fall short when faced with non-linear, noisy, or dynamic data. Sensor ML offers a modern alternative by applying machine learning algorithms directly to sensor streams, enabling more accurate pattern recognition, decision-making, and contex...
In this episode, we explore why 2025 marks a crucial turning point for AI adoption in Australian service industries. We dive into the immense opportunities AI presents, from boosting operational efficiency to enhancing customer experiences and strengthening market positioning. But we also unpack the real-world challenges—ranging from financial costs and technological growing pains to data management complexities, tale...
In this episode, we look at the role of large language models (LLMs) as modern-day “artificial interns”, exploring how these systems are transforming the way we work. From content generation and coding help to customer service and knowledge retrieval, we examine how LLMs are used across augmented, transactional, and autonomous tasks.
We discuss a unique comparison: using LLMs for problem-solving in the same way develop...
In this episode, we dive into the fascinating convergence of blockchain and artificial intelligence (AI)—two powerful technologies reshaping the digital landscape. We explore how blockchain brings transparency, trust, and data integrity to AI systems, while AI enhances blockchain networks through automation, prediction, and optimization.
You’ll hear about real-world applications across industries like finance, healthca...
In this episode, we examine the critical issue of bias in artificial intelligence, exploring how biased AI systems can amplify discrimination and perpetuate societal inequalities. We discuss the sources of AI bias, including prejudiced training data, algorithmic design choices, and human decisions during development. We highlight how biased AI impacts areas like recruitment, criminal justice, healthcare, finance, and ...
In this podcast episode, we investigate AI agents—autonomous systems that sense their environments, make independent decisions, and carry out tasks. We discuss their various types, architectures, and capabilities, highlighting their limitations and ethical implications. Special attention is given to the rise of Agentic Workflows and Data Synthesis, driven by challenges around accuracy in current AI systems. The episod...
In this episode, we discuss the limitations of Large Language Models (LLMs) in areas like deductive reasoning, analogy-making, and ethical judgment. While today’s AI models excel at recognizing statistical patterns in vast datasets, they lack genuine understanding or an internal model of the world. Researchers are tackling these challenges through innovations such as causal AI, inference-time computing, and neuro-symb...
In this episode, we explore the unique nature of AI mistakes and why they differ fundamentally from human errors. Unlike people, AI systems make random, inconsistent, and unpredictable errors, often without awareness of their own limitations. This unpredictability challenges traditional security approaches, requiring new frameworks for AI reliability and risk management.
The discussion delves into two potential solutio...
In this episode, we explore Apple’s strategic partnership with Alibaba, integrating the Qwen AI model into iPhones sold in China. Faced with regulatory barriers and declining sales, Apple turns to Alibaba’s powerful large language model (LLM) to bring advanced AI features to its Chinese users while ensuring compliance with local laws.
We break down the implications of this move—how it strengthens Apple’s foothold in Ch...
