March 10 (Reuters) - Ukraine’s Maksym Murashkovskyi credited artificial intelligence for helping him win a silver medal at the Milano Cortina Winter Paralympics, calling ChatGPT a “revolutionary technology” after finishing runner‑up in Sunday’s biathlon event.
Murashkovskyi, a 2023 world championships bronze medallist, was edged out by China’s Dang Hesong and narrowly missed the gold.
“For the past six months, I have been training with ChatGPT,” Murashkovskyi, 25, told reporters.
“It was not only tactics. It was half of my training plan, motivation, et cetera. So it was a huge volume of all of my training.
“I used it as a psychologist, coach and, sometimes, as a doctor.”
He added that AI could eventually replace some of the work provided by human coaches.
“Not completely for five to 10 years. But part of it, definitely,” he said. “I believe in it, it is a revolutionary technology.”
Ukraine have won 10 medals at this year’s Paralympics so far.
