High-energy laser facilities such as PHELIX at GSI require excellent beam-pointing stability to ensure reproducibility and reliable operation. Conventional PID control mitigates slow drift but is fundamentally limited by diagnostic latency and mirror inertia. We introduce a predictive control scheme in which beam-pointing errors are forecast using a patch-based multilayer perceptron, and the predicted errors are converted into correction signals via a PID controller. This feed-forward strategy compensates for system delay and is trained directly on diagnostic time-series data. Simulations with an upstream correction mirror at the PHELIX pre-amplifier bridge show reduced residual jitter compared with conventional PID control. Across a 10-hour dataset, the predictive controller remained drift-free and improved pointing metrics by approximately 10%-20%.
