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 is the 4th Article club with Brendan SueSee, Michael Davies, and Dave Robinson. The article they discussed was: Sarah Metz, Benjamin Zander & Ina Hunger (09 May 2024): The suffering of students in physical education. Unsettling experiences and situational conditions, Physical Education and Sport Pedagogy, DOI: 10.1080/17408989.2024.2352825 This paper captured a wide range of unsettling PE experiences by taking different perspectives of 677 physical education students. It used a social constructivist approach to address two questions: (1) What kind of experiences are interpreted as unsettling by students in PE? (2) Which situational conditions are associated with students’ unsettling PE experiences? We speak about some of the challenges for PE teachers whilst at the same time considering that the issues raised are not uniquely ‘PE’ problems but also problems of society.…

This is the third Australian Article Club. It covers the following article: Nyberg, G., Backman, E., & Tinning, R. (2022). Moving online in physical education teacher education. Sport, Education and Society, 29(3), 358–370. https://doi.org/10.1080/13573322.2022.2142776 In this article the authors discuss the challenges that the COVID-19 pandemic created for preservice teachers’ knowledge in and about movement and their developing movement capability in PETE in a Swedish University. In a way, covid potentially accelerated the process of a Physical Education degree transitioning to fully online. We discuss why this continues in some universities and the factors that contribute to it. We also discuss some of the effects we think it is having on graduate teachers and ultimately the effect it may have on students – all because the PE community and others do not value the 3 dimensions of Arnold’s model equally.…

354: Should primary school PE be outsourced? Australian Article Club 2 1:03:18

18 weeks тому1:03:18

1:03:18

The second Australian Article Club takes on outsourcing in PE. In Australia and NZ, particularly in primary schools (years prep-6) pe is increasingly being taught by outside providers who usually are not pe trained teachers. The syllabus or curriculum in P-6 expects that a classroom generalist teacher can teach PE. It is only in the Australian states of Queensland and Tasmania that specialists trained primary PE teachers are used. Title of article is in link below: “Should primary school PE be outsourced?

352: Australian Article Club 1 "Arnold wanted X but we got Y" 1:09:46

22 weeks тому1:09:46

1:09:46

For over 30 years in the Australian state of Queensland, a final grade for physical education (in years 11 and 12) was given based on 50% theory and 50% practical, valuing movement and knowledge equally. This article was written in response to changes in a syllabus in the Australian state of Queensland in 2019 which awarded a final mark based on 82% theory and 18% practical or movement. Despite this unequal valuing of movement, the syllabus cites Arnold’s perspective as ‘a philosophical and educative framework to promote deep learning in three dimensions: about, through and in movement contexts’ (QCAA, 2018, p.1). Based on the syllabus citing Arnold’s philosophy it is reasoned these principles (valuing knowledge and movement equally) will be evident throughout this Australian state syllabus. Confusingly, they were not. SueSee, B., Pill, S., & Williams, J. (2023). Arnold wanted X but we got Y – the Queensland senior physical education syllabus application of the Arnoldian perspective.
