If AI was going to advance exponentially I'd have expected it to take off by now.

    Exponential growth is better described by linear growth, which can actually grow faster than exponential, until it exhibits definitive behavior of exponential growth.

      No, no, and no. Exponential growth is always exponential.

        Tell me. What type of function is shown in this graph.

          Not enough information for a meaningful answer

            You don’t know how to fit a curve? Why am I talking to you?

              Did you learn about linear algebra through chat GPT? WTF even is “fit a curve”? Who says that? No, there’s just not enough data to actually make that determination. There’s barely any information on the Y axis, and the resolution of both axes is too low to make a precise reading of their values. You can only estimate.

                Yes there is absolutely enough data to determine the curve of that line. Its basic algebra and your regarded.

                  Could you please show us how to determine whether the shown function graph is linear or exponential or something else?

                  Well done at making a claim without any rationale. So proud. Now show how it’s done.

      What do you mean? Exponential growth is best described by the exponential function.

        Do the R^2 for ‘advancement of AI vs time’ on a linear(or polynomial) and exponential curve.

          What do you mean by with “R^2 for 'advancement of AI”?

          My initial argument was no statement about AI at all, but just an additional comment about the properties of the exponential function.

A “Showerthought” is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you’re doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The most popular seem to be lighthearted clever little truths, hidden in daily life.

Here are some examples to inspire your own showerthoughts:

  • Both “200” and “160” are 2 minutes in microwave math
  • When you’re a kid, you don’t realize you’re also watching your mom and dad grow up.
  • More dreams have been destroyed by alarm clocks than anything else

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. No politics
    • If your topic is in a grey area, please phrase it to emphasize the fascinating aspects, not the dramatic aspects. You can do this by avoiding overly politicized terms such as “capitalism” and “communism”. If you must make comparisons, you can say something is different without saying something is better/worse.
    • A good place for politics is c/politicaldiscussion
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy’s Code of Conduct and the TOS
