Re: Your 2024 Predictions thread
IMO Pekka Haavisto will win the Finnish presidential elections. I'll be back with more predictions
Re: Your 2024 Predictions thread
I wish I had more to contribute to these. Most of my predictions are pretty safe/mundane/common anyway, or just focused on stuff I personally care about.
I predict a Biden-Trump rematch in the 2024 election (seems unbelievable typing that, but that's what everything seems to point to right now). Biden will win, but Trump will receive plenty of support despite (I predict) literally being convicted of at least one serious crime. Trump votes will possibly be more than last time (74.2 million). It will probably be a far closer race than a lot of people are expecting. Trump is actually polling BETTER than Biden right now, but I suspect that will change. It absolutely IS possible that Trump wins again, but at this stage I'm predicting otherwise.
If Trump loses, there will be an even more aggressive and far more calculated attempt to overturn the results.
Ukraine war will continue past the end of 2024.
GPT-5 will release before the end of the year.
The UK general election itself may not take place this year - but if so, the Conservative party will suffer one of their most significant defeats in history. Unless they pull some seriously impressive politicking and Labour does nothing but f*ck up between then and now, I see no way around that.
Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese's support will continue to slide due to his perceived lack of action on housing and cost of living by the Australian public (plus some lingering negative sentiments for the failed Voice campaign). Next election is not until 2025. At this stage I'm predicting sliding support for the "Big Two" parties and increases for minor parties across the political spectrum (though part of this may be just my wishful thinking.)
Amazon's "Fallout" TV show will be positively received by fans.
"Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga" will be well-received also.
f*ck it... I'll predict Grand Theft Auto 6 will release before the end of the year. Plenty of people are predicting 2025, but I'm going to lock in 2024. It will - most likely - be the biggest launch in video game history to date.
I haven't really typed up one of these before. You can get I'll be back here December 2024 to see how right or wrong I was.

Global economy doubles in product every 15-20 years. Computer performance at a constant price doubles nowadays every 4 years on average. Livestock-as-food will globally stop being a thing by ~2050 (precision fermentation and more). Human stupidity, pride and depravity are the biggest problems of our world.
Re: Your 2024 Predictions thread
