Guest post by Alex Nikic In the past few years, Generative AI technology has advanced rapidly, and businesses are increasingly adopting it for a variety of tasks. While GenAI excels at tasks such as document summarisation, question answering, and content generation, it lacks the ability to provide reliable forecasts for future events.
