    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.
