    Computers are still advancing roughly exponentially, as they have been for the last 40 years (Moore’s law). AI is being carried with that and still making many occasional gains on top of that. The thing with exponential growth is that it doesn’t necessarily need to feel fast. It’s always growing at the same rate percentage wise, definitionally.

      Moore’s law is kinda still in effect, depending on your definition of Moore’s law. However, Dennard Scaling is not so computer performance isn’t advancing like it used to.

        Sounds like the goal post is moving faster than the number of transistors in an integrated circuit.
