Wimbledon to use AI commentary during tournament, considering other high-tech changes down the line

Uri Levine Co-founder of Waze, joined the Brian Kilmeade Show to discuss new book Fall In Love with the Problem, Not the Solution and why he thinks AI brings more opportunities and innovation. Wimbledon's All England Club will introduce artificial intelligence (AI)-powered commentary and captions for its coverage at this year's tournament. "This new insight will help tennis fans to uncover anomalies and potential surprises in the singles draw, which would not be apparent by looking only at the players' ranking," IBM, which developed the technology, said. IBM trained its watsonx AI platform to utilize the "unique language of tennis," and the All England Club has provided the platform access to player stats such as the power index, which analyzes performance, The Daily Telegraph reported. The technology will provide captions for highlights reels online, but could eventually lead to airing live AI commentary.
