Can the Yankees Make a Comeback? AI Makes the World Series Call
We built a generative AI model to read baseball stats and predict this year's Yankees-Dodgers World Series matchup.
Numbers never tell the whole story in baseball. But they tell enough of it—we think.
Armed with little more than a penchant for AI and a stack of baseball stats, we created a chatbot that would predict the World Series outcome.
On Monday, against the odds, it predicted that the Los Angeles Dodgers would win Game 3 and eventually take the World Series. As we saw last night, the chatbot got the first part right, at least.
Today, it’s saying that not only will the Dodgers win the World Series, but they’ll win tonight’s game and be the first 4-0 sweep since 2012 when the Detroit Tigers lost to the San Francisco Giants.
