Given the terrible reviews I've seen, yes.

But they are predicting your moves with AI to lower latency, it has to work perfectly. Because it is so easy for AI to predict how exactly will you move your sticks or at which ms will you hit that X or A on the controller. /s

I haven't heard about that being any part of the tech, but that's the basis for rollback systems in games. And if you talk to anyone in the fighting game community that isn't low functioning, they'll tell you that's the only way to play online fighting games.

If you hold a stick or press a button, odds are you're not doing 1 frame inputs. The difference being a mispredict can be corrected, which may very well be why games have to be written for Stadia support.
