ESPN AI-generated recap of retiring player's final match fails to mention them

🧀

ESPN's AI recap of Alex Morgan's final professional match failed to mention her, raising questions about the effectiveness of AI in capturing the full scope of sports events. Sports legend Alex Morgan played her final match for San Diego Wave, which ended in a 4-1 loss to North Carolina Courage. The moment when Morgan removed her cleats and tearfully waved goodbye was omitted from the recap, though it was significant for her, the NWSL, and U.S. women's soccer. ESPN later updated the recap to include Morgan and also posted a separate article highlighting the emotional evening.
