AI is every where. While we here don’t write articles using AI, nor do we use AI images, we understand it’s every where on social media, the internet and even on TV.

So, let’s see how well Chat GPT knows ball.

We uploaded the previews we wrote into Chat GPT, with as much information as possible. Then, we told it to cross-reference the internet and predict the outcomes of each of the games for the teams.

I don’t think Chat GPT knows ball at all.

Reminder, this is all in good fun and you should not let a computer who doesn’t know anything about anyone dictate any moods.
