I'm perplexed that there are a significant amount of people on a tech forum that can't do a simple linear extrapolation from last year to one year into the future. That would get you in the right direction, except that we're on an exponential curve.

- silverquiet 3y agoNot all problems are linear - people have been saying for over a decade now that self driving cars are imminent, but at this point it seems like most have actually given up on them.
- appplication 3y agoWell… it’s possible we’re on an exponential curve there too. The early part of exponential can be pretty slow. And it depends on how you measure progress. We are seeing exponentially more training data collected in terms of miles driven every year. And likely exponentially more processing power applied to the problem space.
