AI, Explained Simply: What It Is, How It Works, and What People Get Wrong

from Wealth Beyond Work · host Zach Morris

In this episode, Zach Morris and Jack Metzger break down the AI stack from the top: what "artificial intelligence" actually means, how machine learning and deep learning fit together, and why tools like ChatGPT are best understood as probability engines - not "thinking" machines. You'll also hear a clear explanation of hallucinations, the risk of model collapse as AI-generated content floods the web, and why compute (GPUs vs. TPUs) is shaping the competitive landscape - plus what the AI arms race could mean for markets, chips, and the Magnificent Seven.   Download your free 20-page guide "Retirement by Design": https://bit.ly/4rB1Wz1 Learn about Paces Ferry Wealth Advisors: https://bit.ly/4tnOSyR
