## Resource

What happens when you ask AI one of baseball's biggest questions? Jeff Passan and Richard Staff enlist the help of several AI models to tackle one of MLB's most hotly debated topics: Should there be a salary cap? Along the way, they compare how each model approaches the question, challenge them to back up their arguments with charts and graphics, and see just how well AI can handle a baseball debate. Whose argument is the most convincing? Watch and decide for yourself. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
