I’m not sure I understand what he’s saying. AI can only predict based on what it can observe. Polls are often wrong, generally favoring blue. And historical cycles involve phases that we would seek to avoid if possible-is the AI going to say, “now is when there will be a coup and a bloody revolution and a century of economic regression-this is the guy for the job!”?

Klaus has a prediction for that too: In the unlikely event that annoying citizens rise up against the government predicted for them, Klaus predicts that said predicted government will permanently suspend all privileges involving the purchase of food, water, heat and shelter allowed on said annoying citizens’ digital currency. Easy Peasy!

Who controls the AI? If search results can be filtered, why not AI results?

I think he's really saying the "prescriptive programming " won't be controlled by the will of the people in the dystopian technocracy.

Keep in mind that underneath the Bond villain appearance, he's really just a dope.
