With the advent of artificial intelligence, sports journalists risk losing their jobs to efficient algorithms. These algorithms can compute statistics on the spot, analyze gameplay, and craft journalistic pieces ranging from articles, to videos and live broadcasting. Despite putting a cultural keystone of baseball aside in sports broadcasting, new AI technology will prove to have many advantages over traditional sports journalism due to its usage of empirical evidence, reduction of bias, and efficiency.
