The Olympics: Drill for Data

Data is the new oil, but how do we drill for it? This is the question that must be answered today, and it is something we are seeing play out at the Olympics. In fact, Kaveh Mehrabi from the Intl. Olympics Committee, says the challenge we have is the volume of information.

“As much as information is good, it can also become overwhelming. It can be difficult to understand and be confident where is the source of truth,” he says.

This is one of the reasons the Intl. Olympics Committee and Intel collaborated to create a custom-designed AI Chatbot—Athlete365—to help roughly 11,000 competitors with varying languages and cultures navigate the venue and comply with the rules and regulations.

Powered by Intel Gaudi and Xeon processors, the chatbot delivers on-demand information to Olympic athletes during their stay in the Olympic village to help them focus on training and competing. The GenAI RAG (Retrieval Augmented Generation) solution can handle inquiries and interactions while delivering information.

The Rise of AI

AI (artificial intelligence) is rapidly changing how businesses operate. For one, we are seeing a rise in demand for AI. In fact, Intel suggests by 2026, it expects 80% of enterprises to have adopted gen AI in some form.
