ChatGPT has become quite the buzz word of our times.

The chatbot system has essentially became the poster child for the rising use of AI in modern times, something which is proving more and more controversial, especially in instances of job replacement like what we are seeing with the SAG-AFTRA strikes in America.

When it comes to journalism though, ChatGPT can be a useful additional resource, especially when it comes to generating a list due to the amount of data the system has at its disposal.

As a result, we at Inside Ibrox decided to ask ChatGPT who it thought the best Rangers players were from the club’s most successful decade – the 1990s – and why they were selected.

1. Brian Laudrup
