We trained an AI to predict how bad a forest fire will be. It's just as good as a coin flip!

Right half the time - that's not so bad. It's similar to the Met Office's weather forecasts for a few days ahead - although they are much more accurate when looking decades ahead.

Any high-tech AI solution that does as well as tossing a coin shows real signs of promise.

Although, when you think of it, being right half the time is exactly the worst you can do.
