For six years now, Unanimous AI has been predicting Oscar winners – and with some incredible results. 

Using its patented Swarm Technology, the company has averaged a 90% accuracy level in predicting which actors and films will come out on top in 16 award categories.

How does it work? By combining real-time human input with AI algorithms, the company’s Swarm AI technology optimizes a group’s combined knowledge, wisdom, insights and intuitions into a unified output – creating an artificial super expert of sorts. In essence, creating hive minds. 

The Oscars are set for this Sunday, March 27 and the company expects another win in its predictions. Here are this year’s picks:
