I don’t think anyone can ever predict a phenomenon. It’s not something you can bank on.
The real power of mass data collection lies in the hand-tailored algorithms capable of sifting, sorting, and identifying patterns within the data itself. When enough information is collected over time, governments and corporations can use or abuse those patterns to predict future human behavior.
Periods of nostalgia are impossible to predict or explain.
I can’t predict the future. All I can do is continue to try to stay in shape and work on my game and have a clear mind and not try to think about negative stuff.

Those who have knowledge, don’t predict. Those who predict, don’t have knowledge.
Trying to read our DNA is like trying to understand software code – with only 90% of the code riddled with errors. It’s very difficult in that case to understand and predict what that software code is going to do.
Football is so difficult to predict.
You know how it is with writing. You just write what you want to write. There’s no way to predict what is good or bad. You just do what you think is funny, and either it works or you’re finished. It’s impossible to predict anything.

I can’t predict the future.

Cameras can look down from on high and predict crop yields, traffic in Walmart parking lots, and travel patterns on Labor Day weekend. On the ground, they form the foundation of autonomous-driving systems.
All of these technologies that we are putting together… our memory technology, our CPU, our graphics architecture, our GPUs – all that is being applied to where the data is. You can almost predict where Intel will be in the future. It will be where data resides.

You want the match to be like a roller coaster, so you can’t predict it.
The most real characters in a great play are those who are so meticulously drawn that the audience could predict how many pairs of shoes they might have in their closet or how many close friends they had in grade school. Have any of our public figures been as fully developed in the media?
What is certain about the future is that even the best efforts to predict the conditions of future war will prove erroneous. What is important, however, is to not be so far off the mark that visions of the future run counter to the very nature of war and render American forces unable to adapt to unforeseen challenges.
Everything changes with time. You can’t predict where you’re gonna be next year; you have no idea, you know what I mean?

It is easy to predict that some of the discoveries of research directed towards Grand Challenges – but only the most unexpected ones, and at the most unexpected times – will be the basis of revolutionary improvements in the way that we exploit the power of our future computing devices.
I’m just very wary that once you start military operations in any country, it’s very difficult to predict what the outcome is.
