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

    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?

          Thanks a lot. But how does this exclude, that it might be an exponential?

              Because I don’t know how to.

                The answer is you cant know that’s why it would be crazy to model it that way. With the infinite possible exponential functions that could fit this curve.

                  But isn’t the same true also for a linear model, which of the infinite possible linear functions could fit this curve?

                    Nope. There isn’t an infinite number of linear functions that will fit this curve. Based on the slope and y intercept there is only one linear function. There may be other approximations but only one line of best fit that will predict future outcomes.

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

          Throwing around misspelled, ableist insults won’t save you from the embarrassment you’ve created for yourself.

              Why so dramatic?

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

If you made it this far, showerthoughts is accepting new mods. This community is generally tame so its not a lot of work, but having a few more mods would help reports get addressed a little sooner.
