Soccer match ruined when AI-controlled camera mistakes ref’s bald head for
ball
由 AI 控制的攝影機誤把裁判的光頭當成足球跟拍 搞砸了一場比賽
4.完整新聞內文:
Technology in sports is a beautiful thing, but sometimes even the greatest
inventions can go wrong. This happened over the weekend in a soccer game in
Scotland, when an AI-controlled camera got confused, and thought a lineman’s
bald head was the ball.
將科技應用在運動比賽上是一件很棒的事情，但有的時候，即使是最偉大的發明也有出錯
的可能。上週末在蘇格蘭的一場足球比賽中就發生了這樣的事情，一個由 AI 控制的攝影
機，不小心把邊審的光頭誤認是足球。
The camera was programmed to automatically follow the ball, removing the need
for a human camera person. Outside of taking a person’s job, it seems kind
of neat in theory. The issue was that the camera couldn’t tell the
difference between the ball and the bald head, continually focusing on a man
standing around not doing much, rather than actually let fans see the action.
由程式控制的攝影機會自動追蹤球在哪、並且嘗試跟拍，不再需要真人攝像師去控制。除
了這會搶走一個人的工作之外，理論上聽起來還蠻有道理的。問題是──攝像機無法分辨
足球和光頭的區別，它不斷的聚焦在邊審這個沒太大動作的人身上，而不是場上的球員。
To make matters worse Scotland is under strict social distancing measures.
With no fans in attendance this was the only ways for fans of Iverness and
Ayr United to watch the match, and instead they were treated to 90 minutes of
head watching.
更糟糕的是，因為蘇格蘭正在採取嚴格的社交距離措施，球迷禁止進場，轉播是
Iverness 和 Ayr United 的球迷觀看「球」的唯一途徑，但卻看了 90 分鐘的「頭」。
Let this be a small moment of zen. We know, at least for now, that robots can
’t take all of our jobs — yet.
不過這樣或許也是件好事，至少讓我們知道，機器人還不能取代我們所有的工作。
