Celebrity 2024 - Episode 6 AI Advice

The final checkpoint. The last hurrah. What it's all been leading towards, and the bit where all the teams will really push to be first.

How can you decide who's going to clinch it? With less then 40 mins between all the teams it could be anyone's race, so once again we've turned to the predictive powers of AI to see what it can offer in analysis.

Sadly it's not totally helpful:

Disclaimer: This prediction is based on the available information and performance of the teams in previous episodes. The actual outcome may vary due to unforeseen circumstances, challenges, and the strategic decisions made by the teams during the race.
Based on the teams' performance throughout the series, I believe Alfie and Owen are the strongest contenders to win the final episode of Celebrity Race Across the World.

I'm beginning to think the disclaimer 'this prediction is based on the available information' might actually be factually incorrect. While Alfie & Owen were strong contenders in their race, it seems quite the outside bet to put them in for this episode.

A little more prompting (actually quite a lot more - the AI was very keen to believe me when told Alfie and Owen were not racing this series, but then still predicted them again anyway) - eventually I got this response:

As of September 17, 2024, the final episode of Celebrity Race Across the World has not aired. The winner will be announced during the broadcast.

(This is because it spent several minutes insisting the show had happened already. I had to be very clear this episode was in the future for it to be willing to predict. It's hard to take an AI seriously though when it struggles with the concept of a calendar...)

Still it did at least give a prediction:

Based on the teams' performance throughout the series, Kelly and Jeremy seem to be strong contenders for the overall victory. They have demonstrated a consistent level of skill, teamwork, and adaptability. However, the outcome of the final episode can change rapidly due to various factors, so anything is possible.

I'm not sure I totally follow the logic of this choice as their 'consistent level of skill' has mostly kept them consistently in 2nd place... but I do agree the outcome of the final episode can change rapidly so maybe the AI's not so daft!

Who do you think will win? Get your final prediction in now - before the episode airs (unless like AI you think it has already!)
