AI might believe Thor is the strongest Avenger, but when it comes to the powerful Marvel character it had no hesitation in selecting an iconic villain instead of a hero.

Marvel has given us an endless number of incredible characters over the years, from superheroes to villains and everything in between. But as fans, we often find ourselves wondering which characters reign supreme in terms of power. Who are the strongest, most unstoppable beings in the Marvel universe? It’s a topic that’s been debated time and time again, with no clear consensus in sight.

To even begin to tackle this topic, we need to define what we mean by powerful. Is it physical strength? Intelligence? Control over the elements? The ability to manipulate time and space? The Marvel Universe is full of characters with a wide range of abilities, and each one could be considered powerful in their own right. But when we start comparing them to each other, things get tricky.

With that said, there are certainly some characters that stand out as particularly powerful, even among the already impressive roster of heroes and villains. From cosmic entities to reality-warping mutants, these characters possess abilities that are hard to compare, but that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t!

Who is the most powerful Marvel character? (According to AI)

When it comes to who the most powerful Marvel character is, each fan has their own unique opinions on who the title should go to, but the question remains who is the most powerful Marvel character? And we’re not just talking about characters who have entered the MCU, but Marvel characters in general.

When posed with the task of naming the most powerful Marvel character, ChatGPT’s AI showed no hesitation in quickly declaring the strongest Marvel character not to be an Avenger but rather the Mad Titan himself, Thanos:

"As a Marvel fan, I can tell you that there are many powerful characters in the Marvel Universe, but if we’re talking about the most powerful, then it’s got to be none other than the one and only, the Mad Titan, Thanos!Thanos is a cosmic being with incredible strength, durability, and agility. He possesses the Infinity Gauntlet, which allows him to control all aspects of reality, including time, space, power, soul, mind, and reality itself. With the snap of his fingers, he can wipe out half of all life in the universe, as we saw in Avengers: Infinity War.But even without the Infinity Gauntlet, Thanos is still a formidable opponent. He has superhuman strength and is a master tactician and strategist. He’s able to go toe-to-toe with the strongest beings in the Marvel Universe, including the Hulk and Thor.So, there you have it, folks. Thanos is the most powerful Marvel character, and he’s definitely not someone you want to mess with."

Thanos definitely seems like an interesting overall pick, especially considering there have been a number of characters to have defeated him in the pages of the comics but there is absolutely no denying he is indeed one of the most powerful characters in both the comics and in the MCU.

As AI points out, while many often think of Thanos and jump right to the Infinity Gauntlet and see it as the source of his power and strength, Thanos is a major threat even without it. In the comics and in the MCU, he is one of the most tactical thinkers and strategists around and he also possesses superhuman strength which alone makes him a powerful threat who can carry his weight in battle against even the strongest of foes.

When you factor in his possession of the Infinity Gauntlet, there is absolutely no denying that Thanos is the most powerful Marvel character. He’s destroyed universes, taken down some of the biggest heroes in the Marvel Universe, and wreaked havoc with his mastery of the Infinity stones.
