Review of the book "Calculate the future" - Eric Sigel

With the active development of technology, an information revolution took place, which opened up completely new possibilities for forecasting the future. A huge amount of information, which for many people seems to be garbage to date, is a real treasure on the basis of which the science of "Forecasting Analytics" was formed.

The book "Calculate the future" does not contain complex technical formulas or abstruse scientific algorithms for creating artificial intelligence. The purpose of the book is to show how the world is changing with the growth of an array of stored information and the author of the book is coping with this purpose perfectly. The author cites various areas of using predictive analytics, from the creation of a prediction algorithm for "pregnant customers" to a system that will be able to select the optimal medication for the patient.

The information in the book helps to open our eyes to a new industry, which will increasingly become part of our everyday life, because with the increase in the amount of data - the accuracy of forecasts only increases.

It is possible that the book will be difficult to read for people with a humanistic mindset, nevertheless it is recommended to everyone who likes to analyze problems globally, and also is interested in machine learning systems and the development of artificial intelligence.
