Was that Al Michaels you just heard?
Maybe. Maybe not.
NBC has announced that they will be using an AI-generated version of sportscaster Al Michaels for the 2024 Paris Olympics.
The broadcaster will utilize generative AI software to recreate Michaels' voice for the "Your Daily Olympic Recap on Peacock" segment.
Michaels himself has approved of the plan and expressed astonishment after hearing a sample broadcast.
He has been a part of NBC's Olympics coverage since 2010.
