Most people think AI "understands" what it's saying — but that's not what's actually happening. In this episode, we break down how AI really works, from vector spaces and embeddings to how language is converted into positions, relationships, and probabilities instead of true comprehension.

Awakening 101 explores how meaning inside AI is created through patterns, distance, and structure, and why this system might mirror how humans process reality more than we realize. This isn't about hype or fear — it's about understanding the mechanics behind one of the most powerful tools ever created.
