I asked ChatGPT this:
"Write a story about Georgia Tech baseball."
And here's what I got, kind of funny. Not exactly Hemingway, but you can see some facts mixed in with the pabulum.
"Once upon a time, in the heart of Atlanta, Georgia, there was a baseball team at Georgia Institute of Technology, affectionately known as Georgia Tech. The team had a storied history and had produced many successful players, but in recent years, they had struggled to make it far in the NCAA tournament.
Coach Tom, who had been with the team for several years, knew that he needed to find a way to motivate his players and turn their fortunes around. He spent hours studying game footage and analyzing the team's weaknesses, determined to find a way to get them back on track.
One day, he called the team into the locker room and gave them a passionate speech. "We may have struggled in the past, but that doesn't mean we can't turn things around. We have the talent, the drive, and the determination to win. We just need to believe in ourselves and trust in each other."
The team responded to Coach Tom's words and began working harder than ever before. They practiced relentlessly, working on their hitting, pitching, and fielding skills. They watched films of their games, studying their opponents and learning from their mistakes.
As the season progressed, the team began to see results. They won game after game, rising up the rankings and earning a spot in the NCAA tournament. Fans packed the stands at Russ Chandler Stadium, cheering on the Yellow Jackets as they battled it out on the field.
In the final game of the tournament, Georgia Tech found themselves down by three runs in the bottom of the ninth inning. The tension was high as the opposing team's pitcher took the mound, but the Yellow Jackets refused to give up. One by one, they stepped up to the plate and delivered clutch hits, scoring one run after another.
With two outs and the bases loaded, it all came down to the team's star hitter, who had struggled throughout the tournament. He took a deep breath, adjusted his grip on the bat, and stared down the pitcher. The crowd fell silent as he swung with all his might, sending the ball soaring over the fence for a grand slam home run.
The stadium erupted in cheers as the Yellow Jackets rushed onto the field to celebrate their victory. Coach Tom embraced his players, tears of joy streaming down his face. "This is what it's all about," he said. "Working hard, believing in yourself, and never giving up. This is what Georgia Tech baseball is all about." And with that, the team raised the championship trophy high above their heads, proud to represent their school and their city."
