Introduction
Are you surprised by how well the Chunichi Dragons are doing this season?
Well, I was too! So this time, I asked a popular AI to predict the Dragons’ final ranking!
Uebayashi is struggling a bit under heavy marking, but Okabayashi and Hosokawa are in great form.
Kanemaru hasn’t earned a win yet, but considering his low number of runs allowed, he deserves some recognition.
They're sitting in 4th place going into the All-Star break.
Feels like a dream compared to those years we were stuck at the bottom of the standings.
So, what's the prediction?
My prediction? Oh no, I could never be that bold…
So instead, I asked Grok—the AI that runs on X (formerly Twitter)—to take a shot.
And guess what? It said “4th place.” Exactly the current position!
Apparently, Grok is pretty good at analyzing team strength. Not to be underestimated.
ChatGPT joins the game
Since we're at it, I had ChatGPT update its data and make a prediction too!
Here are the results:
Grok’s prediction: 3rd place
ChatGPT’s prediction: 4th place
Conclusion
Wow—I didn’t expect it to be this exciting!
It felt like the AIs were real fans having a serious baseball talk. Super fun!
Now I kind of want to keep chatting with them about baseball.
Maybe next time I’ll ask them to predict the entire Central League standings!
