Sorry, my question wasn't clear.

Why is that in Generalised Linear Model we don't predict individual response variable values Yi? We only predict the conditional expectation E[Yi].

In a general linear model (simple linear regression) however all text books give formula for predicting Yi as well as E[Yi].
