Unless you're Nostradamus or Baba Vanga, it's hard to predict the future.

Even then, some think the supposed mystics have got it wrong and will continue to despite making predictions for thousands of years.

The pair were wrong about aliens invading the Super Bowl in 2025, and when it came to the halftime show, it was just a simple performance from Kendrick Lamar and SZA.

There was lots to talk about when it came to Super Bowl LIX, with Donald Trump being the first serving President ever to attend and Taylor Swift being booed when she appeared on the jumbotron.

It was a victory for the Philadelphia Eagles, besting the Kansas City Chiefs with a 40-22 score.

The Eagles were out for revenge in New Orleans after the Chiefs beat them with a close 38-25 score in 2023.

The Chiefs were looking to secure their third consecutive Super Bowl, but it wasn't meant to be.

According to Action Network, one supercomputer crunched the numbers and claimed that the Chiefs had a 58.4% chance of victory.

The supercomputer predicted a 30-27 win for the Chiefs in a close-fought contest. It ended up being a reverse victory, with the Eagles clearing the Chiefs by 18 points.

Working out a probability model, the supercomputer predicted the outcome based on factors like the team's current strength when combined with the likes of betting market odds.

By using 1,000 simulations, it then created a set of average statistics and probabilities.

The supercomputer suggested things would be much closer than they actually were, always predicting a Chiefs win with other potential scores of 25-22, 27-22, 27-24, and 29-26.

The supercomputer was also off the mark with the Super Bowl MVP, wrongly predicting that Patrick Mahomes was going to secure his fourth win.

The supercomputer also suggested it could've been Saquon Barkley, with eventual winner Jalen Hurts only having a 14.8% chance of being declared MVP.

It comes after the same supercomputer incorrectly predicted that the San Francisco 49ers had a 56.26% chance of beating the Kansas City Chiefs.

Instead, the Eagles lifted the Vince Lombardi Trophy. It's the team's second victory after first winning in 2018.

Elsewhere, one Super Bowl fan used three AI models to try and predict the winner, coming to the final decision of the Eagles beating the Chiefs with a 36-14 score.

With the account AI with Alex being on the money with the Eagles winning, others in the comments have asked him to predict the stock market next.

While the supercomputer was wrong, Alex's AI models were much closer to the final result.

One fan cheered: "Hi Alex, I am a believer now. Can you also predict stock and coins' prices in 30-60-90 days increments? It would help me a lot and I would kick back to you."

There might be continued concerns that AI and supercomputers will, with some even predicting when the human race will be wiped out, but if the Super Bowl predictions are anything to go on, we should be safer for a bit longer.
