March Madness approaches a fever field while we are approaching the second weekend of matches in the male and female basketball tournament of the NCAA. The two supports are due to Sweet 16, and my own tournament choices are surprisingly well. I am in fact equal to first place.
It is because I did not choose them myself.
I don’t know much about the teams playing in the NCAA (or woman) male basketball tournament of this year, but I’m still trying to win my support pool. It’s a bit annoying because I went to the UCLA and I attended many university basketball matches. I am also obsessively of the NBA (Go Lakers!), But I was completely absent when it comes to university basketball this year.
Nevertheless, I signed up for a March Madness Bracket swimming pool, and of course, I don’t want to lose. I do not think I will win first place, but there are prices that are quite decent for the top 5, which seems to be achievable. I am confident, not because I am a lucky guy, but because I used a chatbot ai, more specifically chatgpt, to create my support for me.
I do not expect perfection – in fact, no one has ever had a perfect support in the history of the male basketball tournament of the NCAA March Madness. The chances of a perfect support are One in 9.2 Quintillion. But I don’t need perfection. I just need to do better than my friends, my colleagues, family members and everyone in my swimming pool.
So why not use Chatgpt?
How I asked Chatgpt to fill my Mars madness support
There are many ways to ask Chatgpt to fill a madness support in Mars. Here are some different scenarios that could have operated, as well as the possible option I chose.
You can play safely and stick to most favorites.
“Fill in my March Madness support with a statistically solid and low risk approach, prioritizing favorites while including some historically reasonable upheavals.”
You can also go a little more risky in case you think there could be more upheavals than usual.
“Fill in my March Madness support with a mixture of strong favorites, some calculated upheavals and at least one Dark Horse team making a deep race.”
You can also take a very high risk, which could lead to a high reward (but probably not).
“Fill in my March Madness support with a bold and upset approach – prioritizing the big Big Cinderella races, the main anticipated resurfacles and at least a team from Final Four Surprise.”
Now it’s daring!
Whatever prompt you use, you can modify it as you see fit. You are probably asking you any follow -up questions anyway, to which you can answer to get a more tailor -made support. You can go with Solid choices based on analysis or include Hot teams with momentum. You can choose Historically proven trends or go with Joker-Cartes-Feeling teams. And there is always a Cinderella teamso that you can push chatgpt to include.
These are all questions that Chatgpt can ask you in the subsequent answers, so choose judiciously.
Personally, I didn’t want to be too risky with my NCAA support, so I opted for an average risk prompt.
Here is the NCAA support that Chatgpt chose for me
Use of the prompt “Fill in a complete Mars madness support for me, with a mixture of solid favorites, some calculated upheavals and at least one Dark Horse team making a deep race. Make sure to include the first four. Use it as a guide: https://www.ncaa.com/march-marchness-live/bracket,” It is the support that cats (4o chatgpt version) generated for me:
Note:: Chatgpt did not give me the appropriate teams, so I had to tell him to use the official NCAA website with the support as a guide. And I also had to mention to include the first four teams, which she missed. Depending on the chatgpt version you use, you may need to play with your prompt to get a good answer.
Here is the full support of the Male Basketball Tournament of the 2025 NCAA with the first four, strong favorites, calculated upheavals and a black horse making a deep race. I also added if Chatgpt has properly chosen the winner in the first 52 games that have been played so far.

In the first round, Chatgpt went 28 for 32 And chose some of the big upheavals, including the three in the West region. Chatgpt was successful in the second round too, going 14 for 16 And choose Cinderella’s surprise team correctly for the Sweet 16 in the 10th seeded Arkansas.
These are final thoughts that Chatgpt had for me.
Here is the calendar of the NCAA 2025 male basketball tournament:

I used a similar prompt for the NCAA women’s basketball tournament
The NCAA women’s basketball tournament may not be as popular as that of men, but there are certainly swimming pools there, and if you are in one, you can use Chatgpt and a prompt prompt to that of the previous section, to fill your support. Although I am not in a swimming pool, I asked Chatgpt just for hell, and that’s what it gave me for the female tournament:
My fast: “Fill in a complete March Madness support for me, with a mixture of solid favorites, some calculated upheavals and at least a Dark Horse team making a deep race. Make sure to include the first four. Use it as a guide:
Chatgpt response::
Note:: Shortcut to final thoughts.
This support incorporates:
- Favorites: South Carolina, UCLA, USC, UCONN, Texas
- Upset calculations: Louisville on Arizona, Uconn on Texas
- A black horse: Louisville’s deep race
The UCLA wins the title in a confrontation of the west coast against the USC!
