"We're going to double down" — What It Really Means

BS Level:💩💩💩💩💩

"We're going to double down"

What they really mean

We're going to keep doing the same thing but with more desperation

"Despite market headwinds, we're going to double down on our mission to democratize AI for everyone."

"Our investors are panicking so we're spending twice as fast on the same failing strategy."

Share this translation:

It was absolutely a failure

Our original idea failed catastrophically

We made an app for something that already works fine
