Boston Marathon 2023 - Artificial Intelligence
- MarathonGuide.com Staff
In 2007, we were excited to find YouTube (it was newly acquired by Google that year) and we were able to search and curate content provided by video publishers to include with our coverage of the Boston Marathon that year. Since then, we have continued to include a page containing videos crowdsourced to share with our readers.
Now it's 2023 and the big thing is Artificial Intelligence. We all know that in the next ten years Artificial Intelligence will be doing half of our jobs. Then in another ten or twenty they'll take over the world, but that's another story...
As we created our coverage for the 2023 Boston Marathon, we decided to ask Artificial Intelligence (specifically Chat GPT) to write some articles for us and herein are the results - and they're not bad... Given the decent quality of these articles, it's clear our human writers will soon be out of a job. But at least, we think, while we may not need human writers anymore, we'll always need humans to actually run the race. Note that the Artificial Intelligence engine did make some factual errors (noted in the articles), but overall - good work!
Herein, Artificial Intelligence's articles for our coverage:
