AI system that correctly predicted last 3 US elections says Donald Trump will win
 

The New York businessman with a penchant for celebrity television may suddenly find himself in love with artificial intelligence developed in India.

The polls and simulations that involve the skills and insight of human beings suggest Donald Trump could be heading for something of a pasting. But an artificial intelligence (AI) system developed in Mumbai, and which correctly predicted the last three US presidential elections, puts the Republican nominee ahead of his rival Hillary Clinton in the battle to secure the keys to the White House.

Sounds familiar - Oh wait, that was an octopus that predicted the World Cup Winners...

headlines a year ago predicted Bernie Sanders would win:

University With 100% Accuracy Record Predicts Bernie Sanders Will Be America's Next President - Firebrand Left

Emperor Trump!

Comment from the article:

What is he talking about? Has merit or BS?

All you needed to see was university to know that was bullshit

A university that correctly predicted the last 40 years of elections is wrong, but AI from an unknown indian startup that only predicted the last 8 years is right?

I've been ranting about this for months. His percentages are off though. Depends on how you're figuring it. Considering there was a higher tunout of Repubs and lower turnout of Dems the sampling should be about even and inde's being the decider. If you use that alone they (ABC/huffpo) are oversampling by about 8-9%. With the last poll showing her 4 points up she's actually 2-4 behind. The previous 3 days had her 12pts up. So 8pt move in 3 days. Which is somewhat consistent with la times http://graphics.latimes.com/usc-pres...oll-dashboard/

Both AI systems probably need to work on their election rigging algorithms.

Looking at the ABC polls, they have Hillary just ahead of Trump. Then you look at the sampling and it's 7 points more than republicans and independents. The difference in size from dems to gops is about 1% now and independents out number both parties. Based on the polls then, Trump is going to win

The ABC poll had her at +12 just a few days ago. She's lost ten points on it.

Didn't know they put out another. I found this pretty interesting

"Trump, further, has gone from a 6-point deficit to a 16-point advantage among independents, with more Republican leaners in their ranks. "

22pt move with inde's and this is pre bomb drop.

If you look at the methodology , here's who are being polled
Partisan divisions are 37-28-30 percent, Democrats-Republicans-independents.
Independents make up almost 40% of the nation and Dems outnumber Reps by only 1%
So using this, I would conclude that Trump is way ahead if this poll is say that Clinton is ahead by 1%

Go Rumpster Go!

I agree. With a drop like that, and as you said about sampling methods, speaks volumes.
