      <title>Inference - Uncover the hidden logic with Felix Mercer</title>
      <link>https://player.megaphone.fm/NPTNI9234278249</link>
      <description>Join host Felix Mercer as he explores inference—the invisible force powering every conclusion you draw and every prediction machines make. From formal logic to probability theory, we'll unravel how minds and algorithms leap from known to unknown. When machines reason, are they truly thinking or just performing an elaborate illusion?

      <title>Inference - The Mind Against the Model</title>
      <link>https://player.megaphone.fm/NPTNI5568071927</link>
      <description>Felix Mercer explores whether AI reasoning mirrors human thought or merely mimics it through pattern recognition. Examining cognitive psychology tests, he reveals machines make human-like errors but respond differently to interventions—suggesting fundamentally different processes beneath eerily similar outputs.

      <title>Inference - The Architecture of Logical Reasoning</title>
      <link>https://player.megaphone.fm/NPTNI4941283010</link>
      <description>Felix Mercer traces logical inference from Aristotle's syllogisms to modern AI, exploring how machines learned to reason through rules like Modus Ponens. He examines expert systems like MYCIN, the limits of symbolic AI, and how inference operates in both silicon and biological brains.
