Wrighster or Wrong: Cr. Chris Mattmann

Analytics vs Manalytics

Am I Wrighster or Am I Wrong Interview with Dr. Chris Mattmann. We discuss analytics vs manalytics in sports and how computers are running MLB, NFL, and NBA. Dr. Mattman explains how artificial intelligence is transforming sports. That same AI has made tech companies have more data on us than the NSA. Coronavirus modeling is complicated and we learn who is doing it well. We also learn the difference between the Dark Web vs Deep Web. And so much more.
