Since the 1950s, social scientists have been comparing the predictive abilities of traditional experts, and what are known as «statistical prediction rules,» which are just simple models.
To determine which combination of measures best predicted outcome, we tested the discrimination, or performance, of each model by calculating the area under the curve (AUC), which quantified each model's ability to classify a dog correctly as an eventual program release or success (higher AUCs indicate better predictive power)(54, 55)(SI Materials and Methods).

If you were to produce a chaotic model using the above, I would venture a prediction that the above former were the massive attractors about which we could make some decent predictions about the future but that the latter human produced CO2 inserted into our atmosphere would leave us with hopelessly inadequate and wrong predictions because CO2 contributed by man is not an attractor of any significance in the chaotic Earth climate system nor is CO2 produced by man a perturbation that would yield any predictive ability.
McArdle appears reluctant to embrace the predictions of climate models under the assumption that they are similar to mid-century macroeconomic models, for which «only the unflappable true believers place great weight on their predictive ability» these days.
With data errors it might not be possible to find any model with predictive ability.
Models with perfect physics and perfect data might have no predictive ability.
Historical examples throughout the march of humanity to compare with the faith Western academics invest in the predictive ability of their numerical models (General Circulation Models or GCMs) would be a list of some pretty odd rimodels (General Circulation Models or GCMs) would be a list of some pretty odd riModels or GCMs) would be a list of some pretty odd rituals.
Models aren't created on the premise that if they can «fit to data from 1980 to 2008,» they might have «predictive ability
It's an arcane discussion that creates confusion between validation of the climate models and their predictive ability.
«The recent dramatic cooling of the average heat content of the upper oceans, and thus a significant negative radiative imbalance of the climate system for at least a two year period, that was mentioned in the Climate Science weblog posting of July 27, 2006, should be a wake - up call to the climate community that the focus on predictive modeling as the framework to communicate to policymakers on climate policy has serious issues as to its ability to accurately predict the behavior of the climate system.
The best way to gauge a model is by predictive ability, either forwards or backwards.

The real test of any model or theory is predictive ability, and the models have done well so far as below.
Checking whether a model can produce past history in no way validates it as a correct model of reality — in a few minutes I could program a «model» that would reproduce past global temperature with complete accuracy — but would have no predictive ability at all.
If internal system variability on it's own were sufficient as you seem to believe then the mechanisms and quantities involved would already have been substantially resolved with sound predictive abilities already arising from our models.
Indeed, the lack of agreement between the model's «hindcast» and actual temperatures since 1995 should remind us again to view this only as a very preliminary analysis with predictive ability that is much more qualitative than quantitative.
