How an AI model correctly predicted the president 3 elections in a row

Donald Trump was once again elected as the President of the United States last week, becoming the first president since Grover Cleveland in 1892 to win back the presidency after losing a re-election bid.

One tech company is 3 for 3 in successfully predicting who would become the president in the last 3 elections. That company, Resonate, relies on consumer data and intelligence to deliver data-driven insights.

So, what’s the secret to its success? Resonate uses AI modeling to analyze 15,000 data points across 250 million profiles.

Those data points could include anything from what news sources people read to what streaming services they subscribe to or whether they’re in the market for a car.

To dive more into how Resonate made the call, the company’s CEO Bryan Gernert, chief data scientist Daniel Scantlebury and CMO Ericka McCoy joined The Current Report.
