The picks, the pace sheets, and this podcast are all produced by AI. The system behind them was built and tested using many of today's leading AI systems in a strict deterministic environment set up as a handicapping lab, and it has been independently audited by other Large Language Models — including documented audits by Grok and Perplexity. The systems that formed it include Muse, Grok, Perplexity, ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, and DeepSeek. Rankings follow the morning line.
