Artificial Intelligence in Sports: Generating Match Highlights With AI

The FIFA World Cup 2022 may be over, but the story of Belgian striker Romelu Lukaku's performance against Croatia will be remembered as one of the tournament's most heartbreaking tales. Despite his high transfer fee tagged to his name, Lukaku's inability to convert easy chances led to Belgium's early exit. But what if there was a way to unlock the reasons behind those missed opportunities? With the power of AI in the generation of sports highlights, coaches, staff, and even Lukaku himself can uncover every move and decision made on the field, providing valuable insight and a chance for redemption in the next tournament. Additionally, to speed up the process of sports content generation, media providers are looking into ways to have AI analyze the game footage and automatically pick out the highlight-worthy moments.
