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.

That outcome differed, somewhat, from what the betting markets were predicting yesterday and today.

The chatbot we built was basically a GPT loaded with performance data scraped from by the time of writing this article. This is not what our chatbot thinks. However, it reminded us that some things could play in favor of the Yankees—like the game being played in New York and the sense of urgency that could affect the players’ physique. This was enough for our bot slightly increase the Yankees’ odds from 40% to 45%.

That’s no
