Will robots take over sports one day?

Question

I was searching about latest technologies in robotics. What do you think about robots taking over sports one day?

Answer 1

Films about the future always portray a world that is overrun by robots that can think, talk and do basic tasks. The reality is that robot technology is very expensive and difficult to master and exploit. Today at best Honda and Toyota have developed robots that can walk, wave and climb stairs. Is it too farfetched to think that one day soon, robots will take over sports as well? We already have some examples such as Deep Blue, the computer that beat Gary Kasparov at chess, but will we see a tennis or football match featuring robots? The future may be closer than we think.
