Bravo! This type of technology will free up sports journalists to concentrate on the areas where they can really add value, such as interviews, analysis, and "color" that the algorithms cannot generate.

A word of caution, though: The potential for bad data to enter the system and get published and spread without a human editor to correct it could cause real problems for teams and athletes. It will require tightening up on the sources that are used, redundancy of sources, and checking mechanisms.
