AI to Transform LA 2028 Olympics

Olympic Broadcasting Services has outlined a future vision for the Los Angeles 2028 Summer Games that blends artificial intelligence, immersive storytelling and global entertainment.

Following the success of First-Person View drones used in Milano to capture high-speed winter sports from dramatic angles, organizers say LA 2028 will push technological boundaries even further.

AI is expected to allow viewers to interact with Olympic broadcasts in real time, including pausing action, accessing historical comparisons and requesting specific angles or data during events.

Broadcasters are also planning to expand the use of entertainment talent alongside athletes to appeal to broader audiences beyond traditional sports fans.

Officials say the Games will combine sports with storytelling, using Los Angeles’ position as a global media hub to deliver a more personalized viewing experience.

Anthropic Revenue Surges in India

Anthropic’s revenue run-rate in India has doubled within just four months, highlighting the rapid adoption of its Claude AI coding tools across the country.

CEO Dario Amodei revealed the growth at the company’s Builder Summit in Bengaluru, where Anthropic also officially opened its local office. India has now become the company’s second-largest market after the United States.

The surge is driven largely by enterprise demand, with developers and companies increasingly adopting Claude Code and Claude Cowork to automate professional workflows and accelerate software development.

Major organizations such as Air India are already using Claude Code to modernize operations, while firms like Cognizant are applying it to upgrade legacy systems.

Anthropic also announced partnerships with Indian startups in sectors including healthcare, legal services, education and agriculture.

The strong uptake comes amid broader concerns that fast-growing AI tools could disrupt India’s $283 billion IT services industry.

India AI Summit Opening Hit by Chaos

India’s AI Impact Summit in New Delhi began under heavy criticism after attendees reported long queues, overcrowding and organizational confusion at the venue.

Delegates said unclear instructions forced many to scramble for belongings after sections of the exhibition hall were suddenly cleared for security checks ahead of high-level arrivals.

Some speakers scheduled for upcoming panels were still awaiting confirmation of sessions, while journalists struggled with entry procedures due to confusion between digital QR codes and physical access passes.

With around 250,000 visitors expected, poor signage and limited seating reportedly added to the disorder, preventing some participants from accessing sessions.

The summit is being positioned by Indian authorities as a global platform for developing nations to shape the future of AI governance.

However, the disorganization risked overshadowing the country’s broader message about its ambitions to become a major player in the artificial intelligence landscape.
