Ah, first, i am using "irony" in a more colloquial than literary sense, but yes, The Man group developing artificial intelligence.
It's hard to say, with the whole bit about black boxness. Patterns could reveal hidden values. The Bayesian statistics underlying a great deal of the pattern recognition are particularly good in picking up correlations such as large disaster being a signal that demand in a particular type plastic is about to go up.... well, that's a correlation that's a little more obvious, but it might be easy for humans to be connect the first few hops in a supply chain, but an AI could pick up a signal of a correlation in the a supply network that would be hard for a human to track down.
It's a pity gamblers aren't more patient... heh, that reminds me of Long Bets, and the featured bet is, perhaps, interesting to you: http://longbets.org/362/#adjudication_terms
