They first came for the coders, and I didn’t speak out because I was not a coder, then they came for the arts (writing, drawing, animation) and I didn’t call out because I am not an artist. Now they came for the sports, and there was no one to call out to.
If this takes off you can forget us humans having any thing fun left to us.

Nah. People don’t watch sports for top tier play, they watch for top tier human play
Look at chess, the top chess bots can beat the top human players every time, and a good outcome for a human is a draw. Yet human chess tournaments are still very popular and AI chess matches are “alien” and only used as a spectacle.
For things like sports, AI will never take our place, their primary function is to be useful for people and save money. That’s bad in the short term for jobs, but I think longer term it’ll result in more leisure time.
