In the 18th century, Presbyterian minister Thomas Bayes developed a formula that was significantly ahead of its time: Bayes's theorem allows one to estimate how the probability of an event changes as new information becomes available. Today, Bayesian logic is one of the cornerstones of rational thinking, and is relied upon by both the human brain (unconsciously) and artificial intelligence. British author and science popularizer Tom Chivers offers a fascinating account of Bayes himself, his theorem, and the controversy surrounding it, as well as how its application helps us make our lives better and, in a positive sense, more predictable.
