Submission statement: I find the claim that AI can predict the future with 99% accuracy to be overly sensational, and in need of statistical benchmarking! But that is just my singular opinion, and I am wondering how other more sophisticated thinkers might react. Hence, this article was shared here. Cheers!

I think that there is no information available but a claim. No link to the research, or even anything in the article backing that 99% number.

Article is a mess. I can’t find any date stamps on when they tried this. Can’t find any details on how they got to 99%

Sensationalist click bait imo

No need for more sophisticated readers here. It's usually always safe to assume the Sun is a sensationalist pile of trash. Next time, see if you can find a more credible source reporting it first and then post it. If not, just leave it be. A lot of Redditors only look at the headline and will be misinformed by this.

https://arxiv.org/abs/2210.00881 I found this, with the percentage mentioned in the "AI based solutions" part So the pure ML results are pretty low compared to the 99% accuracy, which is achieved with mixed ML and Hand Crafted methods
