Martial Arts & Artificial Intelligence (AI)

As a martial artists we are always looking for momentum and ways to level up our martial arts movements. Training, workshops, seminars, and video media are great ways to build on your school, style, or discipline- so what about artificial intelligence (AI)?

Can we use the recent AI bots to assist us to be better martial artists?

What if you could ask any question about the martial arts?

AI has been great is looking up and understanding certain terms in the martial arts, it has done an excellent job of replacing having to explore a number of books and it has even done a pretty good job at communicating the movement list of certain kata, but what about as a supplement for training?

I have been exploring AI as a way to help improve process and movement, by asking it for corrections based on mistakes that I make in the martial arts as I training.

What should I do to correct myself?

The challenge here is first that I am aware of the mistake that I am making in the movement, and am able to capture that mistake in words so I can ask the AI chat bot the questions.

Second is the results- are they really true and do I trust them?

Given that in any arts certain points are secret (kuden), how would AI have any idea what it is communicating about, even if it sounds good.

For now, the results are just not there, but I do see it as an academic resource when one is researching or looking up static information about the martial arts, but as for the movement- component, not yet, or perhaps not even.

Thoughts?
