LAS VEGAS, March 17, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- In a moment that may redefine whether artificial intelligence can outsmart humans, 4C Predictions, the world's first AI predictions marketplace, is putting its top sports models against expert sports bettor Sean Perry in a $1 million March Madness Challenge. The stakes? Perhaps more than money - this is a pivotal moment in history. AI has already reshaped industries like finance and healthcare, but can it outpredict a human expert in sports?
How The Challenge Works?
Immediately following Bracket Sunday, both 4C's AI Mega-Model and Sean Perry will publicly release their Men's and Women's brackets. Once the tournament ends, the competitor with the highest accumulated points—based on correct predictions—will be declared the winner.
4C has enlisted five of its top AI creators to build a single 'AI Mega Model"—a powerhouse predictive system designed exclusively for this battle against high-stakes gambler Sean Perry, a betting strategist known for turning nearly $2 million in profits from Super Bowl moneyline bets. With full transparency, every pick will be made public, allowing sports fans, analysts, and AI enthusiasts worldwide to compare results in real time. 4C Predictions' Mega-Model combines five of its top AI models specifically for this event.

What is 4C Predictions?
4C Predictions isn't a sportsbook—it's a marketplace that hosts AI prediction models created by experts in various fields. 4C has already attracted some of the top data scientists, PhDs, and elite prediction experts from around the world to build models on its platform.
The platform started with sports predictions and will rapidly expand as more experts apply to host their prediction models. Soon-to-be-released categories include:
Stocks & Financial Markets
Politics (elections, policy shifts, global events)
Real Estate & Interest Rates
Entertainment (Oscars, award shows, box office trends)
Geopolitical Forecasting & Life Expectancy Models
For years, elite investors, hedge funds, and sportsbooks have had access to sophisticated analytics that give them an unfair advantage over everyday individuals. 4C Predictions is changing that by democratizing access to world-class AI-powered forecasting, ensuring that everyone – from casual sports fans to serious investors – has access to the same cutting-edge insights as the wealthiest decision-makers.
As AI gets better and stronger, so do the prediction models. The best models continuously improve, learning from past mistakes, and over time, predictions are expected to become even more accurate.
A Pivotal Moment in AI vs. Human Expertise
Sean Perry is a professional sports bettor who has won millions, including nearly $2 million in profits from moneyline bets on the 2022 and 2023 Super Bowls. He runs a sports betting training site and community on Instagram at @SeanPerryWins.
'I've won eight figures betting on sports and have built a successful track record over many years, as I analyze the ins-and-outs of each team's strategic game scheme, player performance, and ability to match up against their opponent,' said Sean Perry. 'AI cannot possibly match my analysis, which is why I'm confident of my victory against AI – I know exactly what it takes to beat the odds.'
Alan Levy, the visionary behind 4C Predictions, offers a different perspective:
'For years, sportsbooks and pros have had access to advanced analytics, while the average person relied on gut instinct or sports channels. That's not a fair fight. With 4C, we're leveling the playing field by giving people access to top AI prediction models—like having a team of PhDs working for you 24/7. The Man vs. AI Prediction Challenge is the ultimate test, and we're putting $1 million behind it. In the future, every smart individual will use AI to make better and more accurate decisions – whether it's in sports, investing, or everyday life. Why wouldn't you use the best tools in the world to accumulate wealth, avoid mistakes, and make smarter choices?'
The one thing that Perry and Levy seem to agree on—and that most smart people recognize – is that AI will eventually surpass humans' ability to predict. Perry himself acknowledges that the best bettors will inevitably incorporate AI into their strategies because the smartest people in the world already use AI to optimize decisions.
