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

    Exponential growth is always exponential, not just if it suddenly starts to drastically increase in the arbitrarily choosen view scale.

    A simple way, to check wether data is exponential, is to visualize it in loc-scale, and if it shows there a linear behavior, it has a exponential relation.

    Exponential growth means, that the values change by a constant ratio, contrary to linear growth where the data changes by a constant rate.

      There’s no point in arguing with OP, he’s doubling down at an exponential rate (or was it linear).

      That’s what I said. Exponential growth is always exponential.

                I have at this point absolutely no idea anymore, what you want to tell me. Would you care to rephrase your statement, on which we are disagreeing, so we can back on track and have a constructive discussion.

                  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.

                    What do you mean? Exponential growth is best described by 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

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.

Whats it like to be a mod? Reports just show up as messages in your Lemmy inbox, and if a different mod has already addressed the report, the message goes away and you never worry about it.
