Reliable AI system predicts Trump will win
nypost ^

Posted on 10/28/2016 7:01:53 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

A data-crunching artificial intelligence system that’s correctly predicted the last three US presidential elections is picking Donald Trump to be the next commander in chief.

The AI system, called MogIA, crunches 20 million data points from sites such as Google, Facebook, Twitter and YouTube to spew out its predictions, CNBC reported.

It shows that Trump has overtaken the social media engagement numbers of Barack Obama’s peak in 2008 — by 25 percent.

And that’s important, because the candidate in each election who led in engagement data ended up winning the presidency, according to MogIA creator Sanjiv Rai, founder of an Indian startup company called Genic.ai “If Trump loses, it will defy the data trend for the first time in the last 12 years since internet engagement began in full earnest,” Rai told CNBC.

But Rai noted that the massive amount of data in social media posts is tough to analyze. Just because somebody engages with a Trump tweet, it doesn’t mean they also support him.

Does it account for massive fraud?

IMHO, that's the only thing that could put Clinton over the top.

I think the MSM should have looked at the 8,000 to 20,000-plus people attending every Trump rally. That’s a level of enthusiasm that well exceeds even Obama in 2008.

I'd almost agree, but Trump already has put his supporters on notice to look for vote fraud--and as such, especially now with the modern Internet, shenanigans the Left could get away with in the past won't work anymore because they are being watched VERY closely by a lot of third parties.

I will believe it when the Democrats admit it, because he has to win not just by X number of votes but win by enough votes to offset their vote fraud, too.

How does the AI system account for fraud?

Of course we all know Trump has numerical support among the citizens. Don’t need a computer for that.

There’s no such thing as a reliable AI system.
