GPT gave me this yesterday:

To convert 500 KiB/s to a more common unit like megabits per second (Mbps):

1. Understand the conversion factors:

   • 1 KiB (Kibibyte) = 1024 bytes
   • 1 byte = 8 bits

2. Calculate the speed in bits per second:

   • 500 KiB/s = 500 * 1024 bytes/s = 512000 bytes/s
   • 512000 bytes/s * 8 bits/byte = 4096000 bits/s

3. Convert bits per second to megabits per second:

   • 1 Mbps = 1,000,000 bits/s (for simplicity, although technically 1 Mbps = 1,048,576 bits/s, the simpler metric is usually used for network speeds)
   • 4096000 bits/s / 1,000,000 = 4.096 Mbps

So, 500 KiB/s is approximately 4.1 Mbps.

I was like, I just wanted the answer!
