This looks like one of those some-spikes with some-imagination kinda thingy... sort of like Nostradamus stuff. Anyone else know anything about this?

My question is how can the machine know what event is significant and which is not? I mean, why doesn't the machine predict an event like me taking a shower at 9 this morning? How does it recognize which is important enough to predict?

Thanks for the answer, but that doesn't answer my question. Read the question again.
