The World Anti-Doping Agency is on a search—not just for athletes using drugs to gain an unfair advantage, but for proposals for using artificial intelligence to help catch those athletes.
According to iNews, a UK news source, the agency is requesting proposals for AI pilots to help better catch suspicious athletes, send warnings, and perform targeted testing. An athlete detected by any artificial intelligence program as being under suspicion would automatically be targeted for more testing, it was reported.
The artificial intelligence program would also be used to analyze data from other anti-doping agencies and detect patterns.
