How Google AI predict flight delays
An Artificial Intelligence system usually learns by examples. Using historic flight status data, Google's machine learning algorithms can predict some delays even when this information is not available from airlines yet."We’re at least 80 per cent confident in the prediction. We still recommend getting to the airport with enough time to spare, but hope this information can manage expectations and prevent surprises," says Google in a blog post.
