The AI didn't do the math for you. It just made up a plausible sounding series of statistically likely words. Dumbass. But I don't expect the kind of person who would say this to be smart.

According to my calculation (which is probably wrong) you would actually have approximately 3.8 million today not 25. The .com bubble would have caused a 93% drawdown.

And the person who definitely wrongly commented in the screenshot is a stupid fuck. Thanks for doing the math and sharing.

Happy to help. I hate plausible bullshit posts like the OP. I'm sure I get tricked into believing things like this all the time without even realizing it. For anyone wanting to backtest similar investing ideas https://valueinvesting.io/backtest-portfolio is a pretty good tool.
