ChatGPT predicts Auburn football's 2023 schedule

The Tigers should have an amazing first year under Hugh Freeze according to ChatGPT.

We have asked AI to predict Hugh Freeze's first season on the Plains.

Most outlets out there have the Tigers going a modest 7-5 or 6-6 in 2023, not expecting the haul of transfer portal additions to help Auburn exceed past the six win threshold Bryan Harsin could not.

However, ChatGPT is a little higher on Auburn.

ChatGPT's knowledge of current events cuts off December of 2021, so getting it to make a prediction for a schedule happening in 2023 was a wee difficult.

Straight up, it did not want to.

So, I provided it detailed context around every team the Tigers are facing this season and it thankfully gave me a "hypothetical prediction" of each game.

It really wanted to emphasize the word hypothetical. It ended up doing a pretty good job of predicting the games and shared some final scores.

Here is what ChatGPT thinks about Auburn football's 2023 schedule:
