Bracketology, the art and science of predicting the outcomes of the NCAA men’s basketball tournament, has evolved with the rise of artificial intelligence (AI). AI models can analyze vast amounts of data, including team statistics, player performance, and historical trends, to make highly accurate predictions. However, the inherent unpredictability of human performance and the impact of factors like injuries and emotional states make perfect predictions impossible. Experienced bracketologists combine AI insights with human intuition and knowledge of intangibles to create their brackets. While AI excels at crunching numbers, human experts provide context and nuance. The best approach blends the strengths of AI and human expertise for optimal bracket predictions during March Madness.
