Dwarkesh Podcast

Dwarkesh Patel

In-depth conversations with experts like Eric Jang and Ilya Sutskever on AI, science, and technology.

Why we picked this

We picked Dwarkesh Podcast because its host treats technical depth as a baseline, not a ceiling. Dwarkesh Patel finds researchers and builders who will walk through the actual mechanics of their work—ResNet inductive biases, Brayton cycle thermodynamics, the economics of solar learning curves—rather than settling for the headline takeaway. The show's posture is patient, literal, and unafraid of long stretches where the guest simply teaches. Subscribe for the feed; the back catalog is a running seminar on the systems shaping the next decade.
