Is there anything wrong with devising new ways to make more accurate predictions?

what if you predict you will do something? have some special magic machine, and it predicts you are going to say "I am a retarded faggot" tomorrow at 1PM. do you think your body will involuntarily say it, without you having any control over it? if you know it will happen?

also what if that machine perfectly predicts every future actions of yours? if I start reciting it to you will you instantly act like a puppet and do anything I tell you?
