In general, the M-Competitions (https://forecasters.org/resources/time-series-data/), the olympics of timeseries forecasting, have proven frustrating for ML methods... linear models do shockingly well and the ML models that have won, generally seem to be variants of older tree-based methods (ie. LightGBM is a favorite).
Will be interesting to see whether the Transformer architecture ends up making real progress here.
