@GaryMarcus It means exactly that when the "little bit" is a constant multiplier, year after year.

Pro-tip: Exponential doesn’t mean “a little better than last year”.

The statement is part of a conversation about the interpretation of a term, likely in the context of growth or change over time. The tone seems to be explanatory, and the intent is to clarify the meaning of 'exponential' in a specific context. The content is focused on the definition of a term and does not address a societal issue, policy, or public concern directly.
