Thanks to a $100,000 contribution from Google, Morgan State University’s School of Global Journalism and Communication (SGJC) has partnered with JRSportBrief Productions to advance sports coverage and news reporting through the use of artificial intelligence (AI). This innovative research and development effort will explore how AI can streamline and bring greater efficiencies to traditional sports journalism by creating automated post-game content such as box scores and video news reports. The research and performance testing of the AI-based enhancements will be conducted jointly by way of a unique interdisciplinary effort between SGJC’s Center for the Study of Race and Culture in Sports and the HBCU’s Center for Equitable AI and Machine Learning Systems (CEAMLS). JRSportBrief Productions, whose SportBrief AI Solutions provide a central component to the research being conducted, was also instrumental in facilitating Google’s support of the project. (READ MORE)
