IBM's AI enables an unprecedented Masters Tournament experience at Augusta

Since yesterday, Thursday April 10, and until this coming Sunday, April 13, the prestigious Augusta Masters golf tournament is taking place in the United States.

On the official Augusta Masters website, in addition to following tournament activity live and checking current rankings, some special features are offered, such as the ability to analyze any shot made by any player from multiple angles.

These detailed analyses, accompanied by statistical data, are made possible thanks to the technological collaboration between IBM and its artificial intelligence watsonx with the Masters, which is explained in this LinkedIn publication and presented in the following video:

Additionally, the ability to rewatch great historical moments of the tournament in video form is another option that golf fans will find on the Masters website.

WordPress Launches Free AI Website Creator

A few days ago in "On the Net Today" we talked about WordPress publishing a step-by-step guide to create your own website with this tool, the most widely used platform in the world for website publishing. And a few weeks before that, we also referenced how to create a blog on WordPress.

Well now, WordPress has just launched a new option to build websites in an even simpler way: an AI-powered website creator that can be used—with some limitations—for free.

“Creating a website should be simple. And now it’s as simple as having a conversation. That’s the magic of our new AI website builder. It takes your input and instantly creates a fully designed, content-ready WordPress website, complete with text, layouts, and images, for you. Just you and your vision, with AI handling the rest.”, Wordpress explained at the presentation of this new tool. 

Here are all the details on how to use WordPress's new AI website creator:
