Über diesen Podcast
The Cartesian Cafe is the podcast where an expert guest and Timothy Nguyen map out scientific and mathematical subjects in detail. This collaborative journey with other experts will have us writing down formulas, drawing pictures, and reasoning about them together on a whiteboard. If you’ve been longing for a deeper dive into the intricacies of scientific subjects, then this is the podcast for you. Topics covered include mathematics, physics, machine learning, artificial intelligence, and computer science.
Content also viewable on YouTube: www.youtube.com/timothynguyen and Spotify.
Timothy Nguyen is a mathematician and AI researcher working in industry.
