I remain an activist however.

As I said, human intellectual capacity is puny compared to the knowledge of the universe. To predict the future accurately one would have to know every facet of quantum mechanics.

Actually, much recent progress has been made in attempting to resolve the measurement problem in quantum mechanics.

Even classically speaking many systems are chaotic and we cannot hope to describe them with arbitrary accuracy at long times.

Can computers predict the future? If you think about it, if you knew all the information there is to know, you should be able to predict the future. If we can then use a computer, that is able to compute large amounts of data, can they better predict the future than we can?

Like humans it still boils down to an educated guess.
