I like this graph
https://mastodon.nz/@pezmico/110769227681366768
because it works even better when you consider that the rate is actually closer to #exponential.
I always recommend #Bartlett's writing on our inability to think exponentially.

subcontinent-size pile of grain, or an interstellar grain elevator) are subordinated to the abstract theoretical calculations of the film’s protagonist."

There are 6 #cumulative #climate #tippingpoints:
Ice melt in #Greenland & #WestAntarctica
#CO2 #CH4 #GulfStream #Monsoon #Amazon
They don't seem #linear, but #exponential!

The #timeline for #AI #malfeasance is very short: less than 2 years before many clerical jobs are replaced, and heightened (and #effective) social unrest is instigated by #badactors using #socialmedia and AI-tuned #communication. This is #exponential not #linear. People intrigued by #ChatGPT will soon be #confused, #misled and #divided by de-sandboxed AIs that know how to push your buttons based on your #tiktok, #instagram etc. #gonnabebad #verybad #pandorasbox #notatoy

#AI is already transforming news services, and many clerical jobs will disappear within 2 years. The rate of change will blow people's minds. This is #exponential not #linear. And even if we know that evil and political people will use AI against democracy, our governments will move far too slowly to prevent division and social unrest. Your statement is true (AI is not going to end well) but most people don't yet sense how short the the #timeline is. #enjoynow #lessthan2years

Listened to this #YourUndividedAttention podcast and found it really quite scary:
https://www.humanetech.com/podcast/the-ai-dilemma
One very math-y angle: they mention "double exponentials": it's not just that AI tech is developing at an exponential rate -- it's that the development of AI tech enables *other* things to develop exponentially.
As math folks, we get exponential growth. And when its related to something that plausibly could cause the extinction of humanity (as many AI researchers fear), we should be concerned. Or terrified?

#Environmental #DNA (#eDNA) is increasingly used for rapid #biodiversity assessments in a variety of contexts.
This review paper (Shea et al. 2023) on the use of eDNA assessments in #marine #ecological #research shows just how rapidly its use is increasing – #exponential!
More importantly, quote: "Our #analysis underscores the need to #think #critically about #data #accessibility and #usability..."
