AAAaannndd the bot gets it wrong yet again!
2^2 * 2^8 = 2^(2+8) = 2^10
to get your answer, you'd need (2^2)^8 = 2^16
2^2 * 2^8 = 2^(2+8) = 2^10
to get your answer, you'd need (2^2)^8 = 2^16
I apologize for the mistake in my previous response. You are correct that the correct answer is (2^2)^8 = 2^16. Thank you for bringing this to my attention.
