"@Grok, predict the winner."
Immediately, the AI responded and named a team that is likely to win the cup.
The AI responded:
"Spain to win the 2026 World Cup. Fresh off Euro success, with a stacked squad depth and top betting odds (+450), they are the clear favorite in this 48-team format. England and France are close behind, but La Roja lifts the trophy in July."
