Auto encoders are neural networks that compress data into a smaller "code," enabling dimensionality reduction, data cleaning, and lossy compression by reconstructing original inputs from this code. Advanced auto encoder types, such as denoising, sparse, and variational auto encoders, extend these concepts for applications in generative modeling, interpretability, and synthetic data generation.

Wilder from intrep.io for recording this episode! Fundamentals of Autoencoders Autoencoders are neural networks designed to reconstruct their input data by passing data through a compressed intermediate representation called a “code.” The architecture typically follows an hourglass shape: a wide input and output separated by a narrower bottleneck layer that enforces information compression. The encoder compresses input data into the code, while the decoder reconstructs the original input from this code. Comparison with Supervised Learning Unlike traditional supervised learning, where the output differs from the input (e.g., image classification), autoencoders use the same vector for both input and output. Use Cases: Dimensionality Reduction and Representation Autoencoders perform dimensionality reduction by learning compressed forms of high-dimensional data, making it easier to visualize and process data with many features. The compressed code can be used for clustering, visualization in 2D or 3D graphs, and input into subsequent machine learning models, saving computational resources and improving scalability. Feature Learning and Embeddings Autoencoders enable feature learning by extracting abstract representations from the input data, similar in concept to learned embeddings in large language models (LLMs). While effective for many data types, autoencoder-based encodings are less suited for variable-length text compared to LLM embeddings. Data Search, Clustering, and Compression By reducing dimensionality, autoencoders facilitate vector searches, efficient clustering, and similarity retrieval. The compressed codes enable lossy compression analogous to audio codecs like MP3, with the difference that autoencoders lack domain-specific optimizations for preserving perceptually important data. Reconstruction Fidelity and Loss Types Loss functions in autoencoders are defined to compare reconstructed outputs to original inputs, often using different loss types depending on input variable types (e.g., Boolean vs. continuous). Compression via autoencoders is typically lossy, meaning some information from the input is lost during reconstruction, and the areas of information lost may not be easily controlled. Outlier Detection and Noise Reduction Since reconstruction errors tend to move data toward the mean, autoencoders can be used to reduce noise and identify data outliers. Large reconstruction errors can signal atypical or outlier samples in the dataset. Denoising Autoencoders Denoising autoencoders are trained to reconstruct clean data from noisy inputs, making them valuable for applications in image and audio de-noising as well as signal smoothing. Iterative denoising as a principle forms the basis for diffusion models, where repeated application of a denoising autoencoder can gradually turn random noise into structured output. Data Imputation Autoencoders can aid in data imputation by filling in missing values: training on complete records and reconstructing missing entries for incomplete records using learned code representations. This approach leverages the model's propensity to output ‘plausible' values learned from overall data structure. Cryptographic Analogy The separation of encoding and decoding can draw parallels to encryption and decryption, though autoencoders are not intended or suitable for secure communication due to their inherent lossiness. Advanced Architectures: Sparse and Overcomplete Autoencoders Sparse autoencoders use constraints to encourage code representations with only a few active values, increasing interpretability and explainability. Overcomplete autoencoders have a code size larger than the input, often in applications that require extraction of distinct, interpretable features from complex model states. Interpretability and Research Example Research such as Anthropic's “Towards Monosemanticity” applies sparse autoencoders to the internal activations of language models to identify interpretable features correlated with concrete linguistic or semantic concepts. These models can be used to monitor and potentially control model behaviors (e.g., detecting specific language usage or enforcing safety constraints) by manipulating feature activations. Variational Autoencoders (VAEs) VAEs extend autoencoder architecture by encoding inputs as distributions (means and standard deviations) instead of point values, enforcing a continuous, normalized code space. Decoding from sampled points within this space enables synthetic data generation, as any point near the center of the code space corresponds to plausible data according to the model. VAEs for Synthetic Data and Rare Event Amplification VAEs are powerful in domains with sparse data or rare events (e.g., healthcare), allowing generation of synthetic samples representing underrepresented cases. They can increase model performance by augmenting datasets without requiring changes to existing model pipelines. Conditional Generative Techniques Conditional autoencoders extend VAEs by allowing controlled generation based on specified conditions (e.g., generating a house with a pool), through additional decoder inputs and conditional loss terms. Practical Considerations and Limitations Training autoencoders and their variants requires computational resources, and their stochastic training can produce differing code representations across runs. Lossy reconstruction, lack of domain-specific optimizations, and limited code interpretability restrict some use cases, particularly where exact data preservation or meaningful decompositions are required.

Welcome back to Impact Theory with Tom Bilyeu. In this episode, Drew and I take you through a whirlwind week where politics, world affairs, and tech innovation collide. We dissect Biden's shocking cancer diagnosis and what it means for the country, dig into Bernie Sanders' eyebrow-raising admission about the Democratic Party, and go deep on just how broken the government really is—and how (or if) it can ever be fixed. We tackle the big questions: What does it take to create a thriving middle class? Should we trust the government to spend more and do more, or do we need to completely rethink the machine? Are we living through a crisis of vision, where our leaders offer no North Star to inspire the country? And with news breaking on both the NIH's gain-of-function research and China's clampdown on gene editing, are we prepared for the next wave of scientific disruption?

I'm doing something different this week! I'm bringing back the most powerful mic drop moments from three of my favorite solo episodes. In this episode, I talk about how I dealt with a massive challenge that cost me thousands, what happened when I realized I was being blocked from a seat at the table, and the lesson I learned at 5 AM when I finally asked for help. This is your reminder that you're allowed to start messy, invest in yourself, get uncomfortable, and ask for support.  In This Episode, You Will Learn What to do when you're being blocked. The question I asked myself when everything felt overwhelming. Why asking for help isn't weakness. The exact moment I stopped waiting for permission and pitched myself. The mindset shift that helped me stop doing it all alone.

In this installment, Daniel and Tom push deeper into the roots of economic anxiety, the morality of money printing, the logic (and danger) of debt, and why the “Monopoly game” always ends in revolution, collapse, or war.

We've all seen the headlines - AI is revolutionising everything from how students learn to how teachers teach. The promise of personalised learning paths, automated grading, and AI teaching assistants has created a gold rush mentality in education technology. But in our rush to adopt these powerful new tools, are we moving too fast? Today we'll explore why when it comes to AI in education, we need to learn fast but act more slowly and thoughtfully. We'll look at both the tremendous opportunities and serious risks that AI tools present for students and educators. We'll examine where AI can truly add value in education versus where human teachers remain irreplaceable. And most importantly, we'll discuss why comprehensive AI literacy and training is absolutely crucial - not just for educators, but for everyone involved in shaping young minds. Drawing on insights from leading experts on the frontlines of AI in education, we'll provide a framework for thinking about how to implement AI tools responsibly and effectively. Whether you're a teacher, administrator, policymaker or parent, this episode will give you practical guidance for navigating the AI revolution in education. Talking points and questions may include: Opportunities and risks of the tools: Adaptive or personalised learning paths, automated marking and feedback, content generation, analytics and teaching assistants, but also inaccuracy and lack of transparency, data risks, biases, ethics and safeguarding, and like social media, the unintended lasting consequences Where AI is best placed: Is it EdTech and tools in the classroom, the augmentation and elevation of human intelligence, or is it just learning about AI and what it can do and why (is knowledge=power enough?) Why it is so important that understanding and training are emphasised and why everyone needs to have such training Without it there can be safeguarding disasters, skills training can be insufficient, many AI tool providers are offering free training to learn to use their tool but this is consumerised and inadequate and can be ethically questionable; do we want successive generations to only be producing AI tools that are exploitative and using our data and our IP without our consent, or do we want to help people with technology and for the partnership to be of most benefit to them? Guests: Rt. Hon the Lord Knight of Weymouth, Jim Knight Rob Robson, ASCL Trust Leadership Consultant

ALL NEW!! Welcome back to Impact Theory with Tom Bilyeu. In this solo deep dive, I break down the single mental model that changed everything for me—not just in business, but in every aspect of life, from marriage and health to navigating the chaos of global events. I take you behind the scenes of my own transformation, sharing how I went from obsessing over personal success to tackling the most complex, high-stakes challenges facing us all—like finance, politics, AI, and global conflict. This episode is about more than self-help platitudes; it's a blueprint for critical thinking and error correction in a world where spin, manipulation, and “expert” opinion too often derail our judgment. I reveal what I call “The Physics of Progress,” my five-step algorithm for truth-seeking, making better decisions, and not getting wrecked by your own biology, ego, or emotions. I break down why most people run on autopilot with inherited beliefs, the hidden power of incentives, and why AI could either be our greatest tool or our undoing.

Fan Favorite: This episode originally aired on November 25, 2021. It was reported that roughly 1 in 20 people report having at least one hallucination in a lifetime. Maybe it was drug induced or simply a dream. Either way, how is it that you can have vivid imagery about what feels like reality in the moment? Dr. Jonas Kaplan joins Tom in this conversation to discuss all the ways your brain is filling in the gaps of its own break in knowledge. The brain is truly fascinating to study and so important to understand when you want to be more open-minded and question your beliefs or get a better perception of and understanding of what reality truly is. Part of seeing reality as it really is versus how your brain predicts it to be is coming face to face with information that challenges the beliefs you hold. Jonas and Tom explore research studies that reveal the freaky nature of how our brains really work and ways you can hack your way past the overprotective nature of your brain.

Summary In this episode, Andy talks with Dr. Joe Sutherland, co-author of the new book Analytics the Right Way: A Business Leader's Guide to Putting Data to Productive Use. Joe is a leader in AI policy and practice, serving as the founding director of the Emory Center for AI Learning and lead principal investigator for the U.S. AI Safety Institute Consortium. Andy and Joe explore what it really takes to make better decisions in a world drowning in data and exploding with AI hype. They discuss the myths of data collection, how randomized controlled trials and causal inference impact decision quality, and Joe's “two magic questions” that help project managers stay focused on outcomes. They also dive into recent AI breakthroughs like DeepSeek, and why executives may be paralyzed when it comes to implementing AI strategy. If you're looking for insights on how to use data and AI more effectively to support leadership and project decision-making, this episode is for you! Sound Bites “What are we trying to achieve? And how would we know if we achieved it?” “Sometimes we're measuring success by handing out coupons to people who already had the product in their cart.” “AI doesn't replace decision-making—it demands better decisions from us.” “Causality is important for really big decisions because you want to know with a level of certainty that if I make this choice, this outcome is going to happen.” “Too often, we make decisions based on bad causal inference and wonder why the outcomes don't match our expectations.” “The ladder of evidence helps you decide how much certainty you need before making a decision—and how much it'll cost to climb higher.” “The truth is, we're not ready for human-out-of-the-loop AI—we're barely asking the right questions yet.” “Leadership isn't about replacing people with AI. It's about using AI to make your people more productive and happier.” “We're starting to see some evidence that when you use large language models in education, test scores go up in excess of 60%.” “This may be the first time the kids feel more behind than the parents when it comes to a new technology.” Chapters 00:00 Introduction 02:00 Start of Interview 02:09 What Are Some Myths About Data? 03:49 What Is the Potential Outcomes Framework? 08:50 What Are Counterfactuals? 13:00 How Do You Personally Evaluate Causality? 18:22 What Are the Two Magic Questions for Projects? 20:45 What's Getting Traction From the Book? 24:26 What Can We Learn From DeepSeek's Disruption? 27:30 Human In or Out of the AI Loop? 30:41 How Joe Uses AI Personally and Professionally 33:33 What Is the Future of Agentic AI? 35:37 Will AI Replace Jobs? 37:18 How Can Parents Prepare Kids for the AI Future? 41:19 End of Interview 41:46 Andy Comments After the Interview 45:07 Outtakes Learn More You can learn more about Joe and his book at AnalyticsTRW.com.

Welcome back to Impact Theory with Tom Bilyeu. In this episode, get ready as I pull back the curtain on some of the most important moves happening on the global stage—and give you my unfiltered, no-nonsense take on what they really mean for you and the future. My co-host Drew and I tackle everything from Trump's headline-grabbing Middle East negotiations, to the true impact of $600 billion+ in U.S.-Saudi tech and infrastructure deals, to the double-edged sword of “commerce as a bridge” between clashing cultures. You'll hear why I think Trump's deal-making style is both captivating and dangerous, why trying to impose American values on foreign nations is a recipe for disaster, and how culture and economic incentives really shape the world. We dig deep into the nature of power, the hard limits of nation building, why price controls on prescription drugs are a political move (but not a real solution), and the uncomfortable historical realities behind immigration, assimilation, and global order. If you're looking to flag the lines between progress and peril—or just want to understand the real levers of influence behind today's biggest news—this is an episode you don't want to miss. I'm here to give you the tools to see past the spin, break down the real consequences, and make sense of the chaos so you can win in the world that's coming.

Welcome back to Impact Theory with Tom Bilyeu. In this episode, I sit down with my co-host Drew to rip into one of the most turbulent weeks in global politics and economics we've seen in a long time. We break down not just the moves, but the motives and the possible massive consequences behind Trump's high-octane foreign policy—from slashing tariffs with China and locking in a colossal Saudi investment deal, to taking the unprecedented step of targeting Big Pharma with an executive order to lower drug prices. We get into whether all this fast action is actually helping America or just stirring up more chaos. Are we leveraging our moment, or just getting played by the likes of Xi and Putin? Does tough talk and bold negotiating end with real results for America, or are we setting ourselves up for long-term headaches, especially with midterms on the horizon? Then we peel back the layers on some of the rawest culture war issues, from immigration crackdowns in the UK, the controversy about a Muslim-majority city in Texas, to the viral video of world leaders acting out-of-pocket on a train to Kiev.

In this thrilling installment of Impact Theory, Tom Bilyeu sits down with Ben Lamm, visionary founder and CEO of Colossal Biosciences, a company on a mission to reverse extinction and rewrite the future of conservation and synthetic biology. Ben and Tom dive deep into the mind-bending world of de-extinction, synthetic gene editing, and how the CRISPR revolution is not only unlocking the secrets of life—but also actively engineering it. In Part 1, get ready for a rollercoaster of concepts as Ben explains the technical magic behind gene editing, DNA synthesis, and multiplex genome editing. From the birth of the woolly mouse to the debated revival of dire wolves, Ben reveals the breakthroughs, challenges, and wild stories behind reviving extinct species. You'll learn how Colossal is using advanced computational biology, AI, and hands-on bioengineering to not only bring animals back but also reshape the future of healthcare, genetics, and ethical decision-making. This is part sci-fi, part practical science, and 100% mind-blowing.
