That study used computers and current ice-level information to predict future ice levels.

So I'm using the same kind of tricky language that we'd used before, not to trick you, but so that you're not tricked in the future.

我这次用了和以前一样,迷惑性的语言，不是为了迷惑你们，而是,让你们以后不会被迷惑。

And we can just extrapolate in a straight line We before saw some examples where I had an algorithm to generate points, and we fit a curve to it, used the curve to predict future points and discovered it was nowhere close.

我们可以干脆用一条直线来描述它,我们之前看到在一些例子中,我用一个算法去生成一些点，然后用一条曲线对它进行拟合，然后用这条曲线来预测未来的点,最后却发现结果完全不对。
