so if the numbers were “99% slower than without AI but they thought they would be 99% fast”, you’d call that “they were 529% slower”, even though it doesn’t make sense to be more than 100% slower? And you’d not only expect everyone to understand that, but you really think it’s more likely a random person on the internet used a logarithmic scale than they just did bad math?


Well, this random person we are referring to happens to have a PhD in math from Duke.

I find that satisfying.
