No. That calculation assumes independent probabilities for each year.
So, it's not the prediction for the next year only, but for a longer period.
Interesting.
No. One model that could produce that prediction for next year is that one is 89% confident that GAI is impossible, and 90% confident that if possible, it will be discovered next year. Strange beliefs, yes.
But they give 10% chance this year and 11% in the next ten.
