Frances Buontempo joins Phil and returning guest co-host, Matt Godbolt. Frances talks to us about her new book on modern C++ as well as her the topic of her previous book on machine learning. We discuss the differences between LLM-based AI and more statistical approaches, as well as where random numbers fit into all this and the limitations of their current support in C++.
