- How long before we can predict the future accurately?
Now that we have quantum computing how long before someone builds an AI ML system that can predict the future?
Don't know, but I promise to come back and tell you when it happens!Quarinteen said:Summary:: How long before we can predict the future accurately?

In a weird coincidence, I was thinking about this today also, and posted a similar thought in the sci-fi forum.hutchphd said:suppose there was a reliable machine. Would such a machine lead to different philosophical conundra than being able to travel to the past? Seems to me not.
My prediction - - - never. There are things that are truly random. See (1) radioactive decay and (2) the HUP just for starters. Having a fast computer is irrelevant - - - randomness is inconsistent with determinism.Quarinteen said:How long before we can predict the future accurately?
People predict the future all the time. Not surprisingly with very limited success where the future depends sensitively on the present - no amount of new technology will be able to change that. But other things from the future, such as solar eclipses, can be predicted accurately with great success.Quarinteen said:how long before someone builds an AI ML system that can predict the future?

Wow ... you found someone who took that as a bet? Please let them know that I've got a beautiful bridge in Brooklyn that I'm selling really cheap.DaveC426913 said:I predict that Sun will rise tomorrow.
We'll see how that works out, but I expect to be well paid.

A machine predicts the future by analyzing data and making predictions based on patterns and trends. It uses algorithms and advanced technology to process large amounts of data and make accurate predictions about future events.
While machines can make predictions based on data, there is no guarantee that these predictions will be 100% accurate. Factors such as human error, unforeseen events, and changing circumstances can all affect the accuracy of the predictions made by a machine.
The timeline for building a machine that can accurately predict the future is uncertain. It depends on advancements in technology, availability of data, and the complexity of the predictions being made. It could take years or even decades for such a machine to be developed.
A machine that can predict the future could have both positive and negative implications. On one hand, it could help with decision making and planning for the future. On the other hand, it could also raise ethical concerns about privacy and the potential for misuse of such technology.
No, a machine that can predict the future will not make humans obsolete. While it may assist with decision making and provide valuable insights, human intuition and creativity are still essential for making complex decisions and adapting to changing circumstances.
