Alright, here's the deal. I love basketball. I like statistical analysis. And I am learning how to use AI to my advantage.
I had an interesting interchange with Chat GPT about some of the greatest players in the NBA. I offer this for several reasons.
First, I find in fascination how changing parameters changers answers. Statistics are tricky things. They give answers that reflect that questions and parameters you set. They can give you a truth based on your rubric that is not the same at truth. Maybe there is a life lesson here?
Second, I think it simultaneously shows the incredible opportunity AI provides (I got these answers in seconds) and the limits of computation (you are going to disagree with some of the answers because there is still some component that neither I nor ChatGPT thought of).
So, with no further ado, here we go.
