  • Resumen

  • Welcome to today’s episode of [Podcast Name], where we explore why humans still hold the edge over artificial intelligence in the art of forecasting. Dylan Matthews from Vox points out that while the concept of predicting the future sounds appealing, even the best human forecasters, the so-called superforecasters, falter sometimes. Matthews notes, “the best human forecasters still beat machines,” a claim supported by recent tournaments at Metaculus, where top human forecasters consistently outperformed AI.

    However, AI's capabilities are evolving. A simple model utilizing recent news articles has shown impressive results, beating many sophisticated AI systems. But while AI is improving, it’s highlighted that machines struggle with consistency and logical reasoning, which remain human strengths.

    As Matthews emphasizes, “We’re not very good at these predictions right now, but we could get much, much better soon.” The potential of AI in forecasting could transform various fields, yet trust in these predictions remains a challenge. Are we ready to rely on algorithms for insights typically reserved for seasoned experts? Join us as we ponder the future of forecasting in an AI-driven world.
