Can A.I. Turn Average Fans into Experts? (unanimous.ai)

I'd much rather listen to the average fan's opinion than Stephen A Smith, so I wouldn't be surprised if normal people were able to make better predictions, too.

What I'd like to see is an ESPN where the predictions have some consequence to them - you're gonna call yourself an expert? Prove it.

Regardless, if this is legit, Caesar's Palace should buy these guys.
I almost feel like the great performance in picking winners (against the spread, too) buries the lede that UNU amplifies the intelligence of any collection of individuals.
I'd go with fans over experts any time.
