The article is simply stating that there was much hype around Big Data. Surprise, it's not fulfilling the hype. There's more to predicting the future than crunching numbers, finding correlations, and making pretty graphs. > Maybe when every computer passes the turing test and learns to spot corruption, they can throw that in a mapreduce job and solve the problems this guy is talking about. I would be very surprised. History has shown that if we have intelligent agents (humans) with roughly equal access to data, we still have unpredictable results.
