The experience curve is asymptotic[1].
What do we get if we look at say, FLOPS per US $ over time? This[2]. There is no reason to think batteries are any different, the only margin you have is to argue over which part of the curve you think we're in.
A sigmoid curve[3].

- jaggederest 2y agoThat FLOPS graph is an exponential scale... so that straight line "after the sigmoid" is an exponential growth curve. I'm not sure it makes the point you're trying to make.
