Dan Schwarz

Dan Schwarz is the CEO and co-founder of FutureSearch.ai, a startup venture that intends to become the leader in AI-powered forecasting. Dan points out that hybrid systems that combine human forecasting with machine intelligence have already surpassed human-only prognostication, but the AI-only approaches still fall short. FutureSearch has begun to benchmark several leading AI systems on their ability to provide accurate deep research. Dan tells TheFuturists about the weaknesses in human forecasting and the areas where he sees opportunity for AI to outperform. Topics include the anticipated trajectory of AI prediction, including the near term pitfalls and risks, and some surprising long term implications.
