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.
