The mysterious nature of time

Ability to Predict Chaos?

Very interesting. Being able to predict the future works for simple linear systems, but many things in nature and in society are nonlinear and very hard to predict. This new research improves the ability to predict nonlinear and chaotic systems. From the article:

"In a series of results reported in the journals Physical Review Letters and Chaos, scientists have used machine learning — the same computational technique behind recent successes in artificial intelligence — to predict the future evolution of chaotic systems out to stunningly distant horizons. The approach is being lauded by outside experts as groundbreaking and likely to find wide application."
