The debate around what it would take to have a perfect March Madness bracket surfaces annually this time of year. The odds of someone accurately predicting the outcome of all 63 games of the NCAA Division I men’s basketball tournament are about 9.2 quintillion to one.
Tech mogul Elon Musk seems to think that artificial intelligence could help someone achieve those odds. Musk commented on Monday during the launch of his company xAI’s latest AI model, Grok-3, that it would be “pretty cool” if AI could assist in creating a perfect bracket. He then alluded to an internal challenge for employees of Warren Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway in which they could win $1 million for having a perfect bracket.
In this challenge, any Berkshire employee who picks a perfect bracket wins $1 million a year for life, and the person who comes the closest gets $100,000. Musk suggested that using Grok-3 could help someone achieve that ultimate prize, noting that the monthly $40 subscription fee would be worth the investment if “$40 might get you a billion dollars.”
