Explaining AI in football

The user mentioned the "AI referee assistance system" in the UEFA Champions League final. They might be looking for details or a summary about it. I should provide context about existing systems like semi-automated offside technology used in the 2022 World Cup and UEFA's usage since the 2022-23 season. However, I need to clarify whether this was actually used in the finals since I'm unsure. It's a bit confusing, but I want to answer accurately!Clarifying AI referee systems

The user mentioned the "AI referee assistance system," which might refer to new technologies like VAR's automatic offside lines or UEFA's limb-tracking. I need to clarify what they want: whether it's news confirmation, a tech explanation, pros and cons, or timeline. I should provide a concise overview, maybe even in Chinese, while being cautious about misinformation. As of 2024, UEFA has semi-automated offside technology (SAOT), so the "first time" claim might be inaccurate. Asking for the source or date would help.Explaining AI referee assistance

I’m considering proposing an explanation for the "AI referee assist" system. I need to clarify what it includes: semi-automated offside technology (SAOT), goal-line technology (GLT), ball IMU, and player tracking. I’ll detail how it works with camera arrays, skeletal tracking, and machine learning for accurate decisions that have improved from about 70 seconds down to 20-25 seconds. However, limitations exist, such as occlusions and privacy concerns. I might also ask the user if they want news verification, a tech overview, or analysis on impact.
