Claude has better predictions but they're not funny. Gemini's one is genuinely funny. This is exactly the opposite of what I'd expect.

I wouldn't describe most of Claude's predictions as better, they seem to skew towards wildly over optimistic futurism/science-fantasy:

  "SpaceX announces Mars City Alpha is now self-sustaining (spacex.com)" 

  Show HN: I built an IDE for direct neural programming (thoughtexchange.io)

Gemini's SpaceX post is at least in the ballpark of plausibility 10 yrs from now:

  First successful telemetry from Starship HLS-9 on the Sea of Tranquility (spacex.com)

OK, they're more realistic then. It seems to have made an actual attempt to be accurate, whereas Gemini chose satire and was surprisingly good at it.

All of the usernames being directly related to the headlines is uncanny.

I did a similar one for predicting "The Onion" headlines: https://sethjano.github.io/fun-scripts/

This one’s hilarious. What was your prompt?

Some of those are very goody-two-shoes-anthropic-y
