    A new AI system can now predict the time of your death with an
    error of just 2 days!

    You need to die and wait one to 60 days, then give a blood sample
    to the system, and it will the predict the time of your death.

    (In my English, "to predict" refers to the /future/, but for those
    AI folks, apparently, you can predict all kinds of things!)

    But also physicists "predict" the gyromagnetic moment of the
    electron (meaning: they calculate it from first principles).
