UFC heavyweight No. 5 Alexander Volkov praised the artificial intelligence that predicted his win against Sergei Pavlovich in an exclusive interview with Telecomasia.net.
How cool is that? Impressive. It's not like the AI outright 'predicted' it, but this thing is cool. It's a little scary if there's a rise of the machines. But it's still fun. Do I believe it? Let's see if the prediction is true.
