Artificial intelligence is set to play a major role in the upcoming Olympic Games, as organizers look to take advantage of rapidly advancing technology. The International Olympic Committee (IOC) has announced plans to incorporate AI into sports, using it for various purposes such as identifying talented athletes, customizing training methods and enhancing judging to make the games more equitable.
During a press event at the former London Olympic Park, where the 2012 summer games were held, IOC President Thomas Bach emphasized the importance of embracing change and utilizing AI responsibly in order to maintain the uniqueness and relevance of the Olympic Games. With the Paris Olympics just under 100 days away, the IOC is gearing up to implement their AI strategy, which includes safeguarding athletes from online harassment and enhancing the broadcasting experience for viewers at home.
The IOC’s plans to use artificial intelligence also extend to security measures for the Paris games. A video surveillance system featuring AI-powered cameras will be used to identify potential security risks such as abandoned packages or large crowd movements. This technology aims to improve safety and security for both athletes and spectators while also contributing to the overall success of the event.
