AI commentary to be held at 146-year-old Wimbledon: Commentators will be able to sound like former veteran McEnroe-Thralefall

The commentary of the matches at Wimbledon, the oldest tournament of tennis, is going to be done through Artificial Intelligence (AI). Starting on July 3, the All England Club, the organizing body of Wimbledon, the third Grand Slam of the year, has announced that this year the commentary on Wimbledon's app and website will be done by AI-generated commentators.
This will be the first time in the history of this 146-year-old tournament that AI commentators will do the work of writing and speaking. No human input will be given to these commentators. In such a situation, the AI commentator himself will use his intelligence. The first Wimbledon matches were broadcast live and commented on by the BBC in 1937.
The AI commentator was first used 3 months ago at the US Masters golf tournament. American golfing legend Jack Nicklaus had an AI-powered animation capable of talking to fans and answering golfing questions.
All England Club is going to launch an AI commentator with the help of IBM. IBM is a software company that is an affiliate of Wimbledon. For this, the AI commentator has been prepared in the technical language of tennis. Its data will include where the ball is. What kind of shots the players are playing? Female and male commentators will be used during the commentary, but there will be no human input in the voice.
It is being told that AI commentators will be able to commentate in the exact voice of many legendary commentators like legendary tennis player John McEnroe and the late Bill Threlfall. Although Threlfall is dead, there may be some problems with imitating his voice.
On the launch of AI commentator, tennis experts say that where AI commentator will bring language, tone, and sense of humor like humans.
Line judges will soon be replaced by AI-made artificial judges in tennis. The AI commentator will be used for daily highlights etc. on the app and website. Later Wimbledon's broadcaster, the BBC, tried it out for more general matches such as junior, senior, and wheelchair tennis.
