Google uses AI to predict flight delays!

Google uses AI to predict flight delays!

Google has launched AI (Artificial Intelligence), which can predict flight delays before the airline itself. Also, some information on why this delay will happen specifically for a flight.

If you remember, I recently wrote an article about the fact that Google has completely redesigned Google Flights, and it seems that innovations are only related. I wrote in the plural because now they have introduced information about what you get and what you don't, along with your ticket. For example, do you have space in your class for things above your head or can you choose a place, etc. (shown in the animation below)?

Google uses AI to predict flight delays!

Google says it uses historical flight data (as well as many other influencing factors) and machine learning to predict delays. They are also note that the delay will be announced only in the case when the security is higher than 80%, which is quite enough.

Now, in my opinion, take their information about the delay with a grain of salt. For example, when you are really in a race against time and you are forced to leave some jobs unfinished. In that case, if Google is more than 80% sure that the flight will be delayed, you can take a risk and still get the job done. However, Google advises you to arrive at the airport on time.

To get this delay information, just enter the flight number (eg "American 4442") or the flight route (eg "Air New Zealand Auckland to Singapore") and all the information will appear in one place.

To click on the post or not?

Recently, Facebook has been flooded with " click bait " posts, and sometimes you don't know if there is something really useful behind that post or if it's just collecting clicks. There is a plugin that can partially reveal this to you. Nothing special, it's a Chrome extension called " Photo Zoom ". What does he actually do? Enlarges the image you hover over by loading the source address of the image . How can it help? Clickbait posts often "trick" users into clicking with an image (in addition to terrible headlines). They place those pictures so that only a part of them is visible on the Facebook wall and just enough to interest your potential. If you want to see the whole thing, you have to click on the link, which is their goal.
