There is an endless debate in basketball about who is the best player in history. It is difficult to compare different eras, positions, playing styles… but the vast majority opt for two players: Michael Jordan or LeBron James. Since there is no unanimity among humans, Artificial Intelligence has been resorted to in search of a solution to the conflict.
ChatGPT has the answer. In fact, it has for any matter. Another thing is whether it is correct or agrees with each person’s opinion. The tool has used the statistics, titles, awards and other factors of all the players in NBA history to establish a classification led by Michael Jordan. LeBron James would be second.
The program, taking into account the positions in which the players traditionally played, also dares to name the best quintet ever. Jordan would be the shooting guard and LeBron the small forward, while Magic Johnson would be the point guard, Tim Duncan as the power forward and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar as the center.
Chamberlain is Curry
A second best quintet would be made up of Oscar Robertson, Kobe Bryant, Larry Bird, Kevin Garnett and Shaquille O’Neal. It is surprising not to see Wilt Chamberlain on these teams, the man who holds the most records in NBA history and scored 100 points in a game. Nor does Stephen Curry appear, who has changed basketball with his way of playing and yet is in 24th place.
The good ‘taste’ of Artificial Intelligence is indisputable, but it is difficult for it to have ended the dilemmas or made anyone change their mind. Preferences go far beyond the statistics and data analyzed by a program. There is debate for a while and it does not seem that there is a machine to resolve it.
