In this episode, we consider if having an LLM like ChatGPT or Gemini can replace having (or knowing) the rule books.

What even are LLMs? Are they infallible? Are they an acceptable source for rules and mechanics? Should they be, or is this a case of Luddites trying to take away all of our fun? Join us as we talk about what are the proper sources of guidance for your umpiring journey.
