🔮Predictive AI: Your Invisible Fortune-Teller // REPOST
About this episode
Ever wonder how Netflix knows your next binge-watch, or why your bank spots fraud before you do? In this lively episode of A Beginner’s Guide to AI, Professor GePhardT lifts the lid on predictive AI—the hidden tech wizard quietly shaping our daily lives.
From forecasting retail trends at Target to critical healthcare interventions, predictive AI isn't just predicting the future; it's already shaping it. But there’s a catch: with great power comes the thorny challenge of bias and ethics.
Join the fun as we untangle how predictive AI differs from generative AI, explore its surprising influence in everyday situations (cakes included!), and sharpen our own predictive skills through hands-on activities with Google Trends.
Plus, a reality check from AI pioneer Pedro Domingos reminds us why understanding this tech matters—because computers might already run more than we'd like to admit.
