The document discusses the differences between using "going to" and "will" when making predictions. "Going to" is used to express predictions that are definitely going to happen based on evidence, while "will" expresses predictions that are thought to be likely but there is not 100% certainty. Some examples are provided to illustrate using each for both positive and negative predictions.
