$BKDCF BKD.V May 25, 2017 (Investorideas.com Newswire) Investorideas.com, a global news source and investor resource covering sports stocks and technology stocks including artificial intelligence looks at how AI is revolutionizing the sports sector.

In sports media AI is changing how content is created. Should sports writers be fearful hearing news last year that Associated Press was using AI to write Minor League Baseball articles? Robo- journalism is a reality according to a report in Wired.com. "Fox (FOX) auto-generates some sports recaps that appear on its Big Ten Network site, while Yahoo (YHOO) uses similar technology to create fantasy sports reports custom-made for each of its users.

From a case study report from the Wordsmith platform from Automated Insights, it shows how it creates personalized narratives for millions of Yahoo fantasy football users.

The Automated Insights Wordsmith platform uses natural language generation to transform raw fantasy football data into draft reports, match previews, and match recaps. The platform generates millions of stories each week, essentially giving every fantasy owner a personalized sports reporter writing about their team.

Even though the stories are produced at a speed and scale that would be impossible for human writers, McFarland says “[it’s] not especially obvious that they were generated by a computer.” In fact, Yahoo asked AI to give its reports a particularly snarky tone for the 2014-15 season.
