The Dangers of Predictive Computer Modelling
30th November 2021
Both climate change hysteria and Covid hysteria are based on two things, and in neither case except by the most inaccurate understanding of the word can these things be described as science.
The ‘science’ foundation for both is actually computer modelling. Computer modelling is a modern form of fortune telling. It can probably get fairly accurate results in a very short time span with very few variables and many historical examples to feed into the analysis. I’ll give it that much.
If you want to know how a crowd of people fleeing a fire are likely to react in a small building, it can probably do the job for you. With about the same accuracy as a human fireman (sorry, fire fighter) who has been in the job more than three weeks.
The map is not the territory.
