The management of the Lithuanian Basketball Championship (Betsafe-LKL) has announced plans to integrate artificial intelligence (AI) tools for real-time match data collection. Developed by Genius Sports, the Insight program will analyze gameplay and provide essential information for athletes and bettors alike.
The AI system will enhance live broadcasts by integrating online infographics and creating new sponsorship opportunities for league partners. Full implementation of the technology in stadiums is slated for the 2024/2025 season.
Rasa Luimiene, CEO of the Lithuanian Basketball League, emphasized the organization's commitment to leveraging modern technologies. She believes that the introduction of AI will not only enhance the offerings for LKL clubs but also provide valuable insights for basketball coaches and club administrations.
