Hey, did you know that Dana White, the boss of the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC), is bringing in big changes? He’s decided to work with IBM, a company that’s been around for ages, to use something called artificial intelligence (AI) in MMA fights. Before you start thinking this is just for other sports like soccer or basketball, let me tell you, MMA is different. It’s got lots of different things to look at, and the rules change all the time. That’s why AI is such a big deal.

Imagine this: IBM’s super-smart computer tool, called Watson, is going to help UFC fans see fights in a whole new way. It’s going to give us cool stuff to look at, like how fighters move inside the Octagon and even predict what might happen next! This is all part of a bigger plan by UFC and IBM to make fight nights more exciting.

IBM’s top guy, Arvind Krishna, thinks AI is super important for all kinds of businesses. He says that soon, companies that don’t use AI might fall behind. And Dana White, the UFC boss, agrees. He thinks AI will make the rankings system fairer and more accurate.

Even though we don’t know exactly when this new AI system will start, it’s clear that MMA is about to get a big tech boost. So, get ready for some amazing changes coming your way!
