  1. One of the things I find genuinely fascinating about exponential technology is how different fields amplify each other.

    AlphaFold identified 200 million proteins for biologists to research. But it only worked because genome sequencing had already been driven forward by cheaper computers.

    Computing advancing biotech. Biotech advancing our understanding of life. It compounds.

  3. Moore's Law held for over 40 years. The number of transistors in a processor multiplied 10 million times between 1971 and 2015.

    But has that rate of change felt real to you day to day? Or has it crept up quietly in the background?

    I've been thinking about this while writing my new series on why technology is outpacing society. First post: [link]

    That's what exponential technology looks like. And it's just one example from the first post in my new series on why technology is outpacing society.

  7. New series starting tomorrow: Why Technology Is Outpacing Society.

    In five posts I want to explore how exponential technology is reshaping our world and what society is struggling to keep up with.

    First up: what is the exponential age and what forces are driving it? It's more interesting than the name suggests.

  11. The SCARIEST chart in AI
    Visualizing the exponential.

    This data-driven look at compute-to-intelligence ratios suggests we are entering a phase of self-improving code that exceeds all previous human projections for 2030.

  13. I came across this chapter by M. King Hubbert on "Exponential Growth as a Transient Phenomenon in Human History" written in 1976. It lays out clearly how non-renewable resources will run out and human society will go back to a steady state situation. The question is whether it will crash first or level off by transitioning to renewable energy.

    The only quibble I have with the article is they he mentions money as something that can grow exponentially for ever. Money can decouple temporarily from the physical world, but for it to be useful there needs to be some coupling. So monetary and economic growth will also end.

  15. Kurze Erinnerung:

    Exponentielles Wachstum:
    Die Veränderung beschleunigt sich ständig – die Kurve wird immer steiler.

    Logistisches Wachstum:
    Zuerst Beschleunigung (fast exponentiell), dann Abflachung durch Grenzen → S-Kurve.

    Viele Technologien wirken anfangs exponentiell, folgen langfristig aber tatsächlich einer logistischen Diffusionskurve.

  17. "Compound interest is the eighth wonder of the world. He who understands it, earns it... he who doesn’t... pays it."
    — Albert Einstein

    Start early—even small amounts grow exponentially over decades. 💰🌱

  18. The problem with bubbles:
    #Bubble|s and #exponentialGrowth look the same to numbers driven people until the bubble bursts. Trends that grow exponentially are a very good chance for large profits, if you enter early enough. If you enter before the curve bows upwards and succeed, it doesn’t matter what you invest. You will profit.
    The people who are not numbers driven but try to understand the story have a chance to find the difference. But Numbers driven people distrust those people.

    (I don't get it, how people - especially economists - are unable to grasp exponential. When I was 8 years old, I already understood, reading the oriental tale about the maker of the check-play asking the sultan for his pay in graincorns doubling each field on the check table. Of course the sultan went broke at the middle of the table. How can anyone not grasp that? o.O)

  21. 📈 Global grid battery capacity is about to explode. From ~300 GWh today to 3+ TWh by 2030—a 10x leap in just 5 years. This isn't just storage—it's the backbone of a new energy system. Solar, wind, AI, EVs… all need it. And it's happening fast. #BatteryBoom #BESS #ExponentialGrowth #Lithium #LFP

  22. 🚀🧠 "Large Language Models Are Improving Exponentially," they proclaimed, as their servers collapsed under the weight of their own irony—403 Forbidden! The real exponential growth here is in error messages. 😆👌

  24. Do we have too many people on Earth as it is?

    My opinion to this question: youtube.com/watch?v=P9gRdOeRg7

    Yes. Currently, there are too many people with bad habits on this planet!

    So don't force women to have babies for pensions, ...

    ...but also don't resort to genocide or random forced sterilisation or one baby legislation.. or any such measure.

  25. Another very interesting read by Erin Remblance, “How does degrowth apply to our minds?”

    “[…] those of us in the global north are taking from both countries in the global south and future generations to fuel our lifestyles today.”

  31. The AI honeymoon is over, but its impact has barely begun. What happens when we no longer interact with AI on discrete tasks, but it's pervasive in our work? We’ll reach that reality faster than we did with the digital revolution. Ian Beacraft explores the ability and practices of AI-enabled individuals and teams to provide exponential value.

  32. If I drive 10km/h for 5 min, then increase my speed by 10%, continue for the next 5 min, speed up by 10% again, how far have I gone after 2 hours? How is it different if I speed up 10% after every passed km?

  35. Daniel Schmachtenberger talks about the "metacrisis".

    "Change your Feed that you always remember what to change."

    That's why I changed my social Medium to #mastodon, that's why I use another Money system, that's why Focus on opportunities instead of fear.
