Get ready to see winter sports like never before! The Milano Cortina 2026 Winter Olympics will debut AI-driven 3D replays that reconstruct jaw-dropping moments – like a snowboarder’s mid-air twist or a speed skater’s photo-finish – in under 20 seconds. 🤯 This tech upgrade, powered by Alibaba’s cloud infrastructure, promises to turn live broadcasts into immersive experiences.
Instant Freeze-Frame Magic
New 'Spacetime Slices' will merge multiple motion phases into one visual, letting viewers analyze a figure skater’s quadruple jump as if time stopped. AI will also isolate athletes from snowy backdrops, making replays crisper than fresh powder. ❄️
No More ‘Where’s Waldo?’ Moments
Broadcasters can soon ask AI: “Show me every gold-medal luge run” instead of scrubbing through hours of footage. An automatic tagging system will ID athletes and key events in real time – perfect for TikTok-style highlight reels. 🎥
Cloud Goes Full Send
Following Tokyo 2020’s experiments, Milano Cortina will stream hundreds of live feeds via cloud to 40+ broadcasters. Smaller media teams can now access pro-level content without satellite trucks – leveling the Olympic storytelling field. 🌐
Plus, fans get LLM-powered chat assistants to navigate 8+ petabytes of archives. Imagine asking AI: “What’s the wildest ski jump fail since 1994?” and getting a clip montage instantly. 🏂
Organizers say these tools will make the Games “not just watchable, but explorable” – and for Gen-Z viewers raised on Twitch and TikTok, that’s a gold-medal win. 🥇
