Swarm Intelligence, a new tool used by gamblers to win bets; how it works
According to News Discovery, UNU is a software program that harnesses the collective power of horse racing professionals to correctly predict the first four horses that cross the finish line and in which order. At last weekend's Kentucky Derby, one experimental player witnessed the power of this software at first hand.
Apparently, reporter Hope Reese of Tech Republic asked the UNU software to do a swarm prediction of the derby last Thursday. The software collected a group of 20 participants, who were well knowledgeable about the race, narrowed the winning horses down to four, and predicted the winning order.
To her amazement, the UNU made correct predictions using expert brainpower. This is not the first time that the software has made correct predictions. Formerly, Swarm Intelligence has seen accurate guesses of winners for National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) championships, the Super Bowl, the Oscars, and primary election results.
