The Indian Premier League (IPL) is currently one of the biggest Twenty20 cricket leagues in the world and it features some of the best players from around the world. Recently, ChatGPT, a large language model created by OpenAI, has taken the internet by storm ever since it has been released for the general public. We have asked the model for the all-time playing XI for the Indian Premier League and here are the results.
ChatGPT has selected a playing XI of legendary cricketers such as Virat Kohli from India, AB de Villiers from South Africa, David Warner from Australia, Hashim Amla from South Africa, Rohit Sharma from India, Mitchell Starc from Australia, Muttiah Muralitharan from Sri Lanka, Sunil Narine from West Indies, Lasith Malinga from Sri Lanka, Chris Gayle from West Indies, and the great Sachin Tendulkar from India. Although ChatGPT missed on some great players like Kieron Pollard, Dwayne Bravo, Shane Watson, and Yuzvendra Chahal, it is clear that the playing XI that was selected was not easy to put together and there were bound to be misses at some point.
OpenAI created ChatGPT as an artificial intelligence language model that is based on the GPT (Generative Pre-trained Transformer) architecture. The aim of the model is to advance the understanding of AI development in an effort to create more natural and human-like process automation. It also helps reduce cognitive load on humans in areas such as programming and data extraction. With the help of linguistic inputs, ChatGPT has been successful in coming up with innovative ideas and understandings.
Meanwhile, the man who has been behind the success of OpenAI, is not other than the co-founder and CEO, Sam Altman. He previously served as the president of Y Combinator and his vision and leadership has taken the company from strength to strength. He has a strong focus on AI, robotics, virtual reality, health, and biotechnology, and his goal is to make things more efficient and to reduce human labor.
The results given by ChatGPT for the all-time playing XI for the Indian Premier League is proof that even the best of AI models still needs the support of the human touch in order to make a successful product. However, with the help of AI, the time taken for any process related to programming and data extraction is reduces substantially and this could have an immense positive impact on the future of our society.
