With applications ranging from athlete safeguarding to enhanced broadcast experiences and efficient energy management, artificial intelligence (AI) and technology innovations are set to transform some aspects of the Olympic Games Paris 2024, paving the way for future editions. In a groundbreaking initiative, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) launched the Olympic AI Agenda in April 2024, setting out the envisioned impact that AI can deliver for sport. The Paris Games will witness the first examples of implementation. The IOC will use AI at the Olympic Games Paris 2024, in different areas. A very important one is safeguarding from cyber abuse, since we expect about half a billion social media posts during these Games. AI will also be used to create highlights videos in multiple formats and languages during these Games. We are also using AI to make the Olympic Games more sustainable, through a very sophisticated first-ever data capture and energy management system.

ASMPT and IBM announced a renewed agreement to extend their collaboration on the joint development of the next advancement of chiplet packaging technologies. Through the agreement, the two companies will work together to advance thermocompression and hybrid bonding technology for chiplet packages, using ASMPT’s next generation of Firebird TCB and Lithobolt hybrid bonding tools. Chiplets deconstruct SOCs into their composite parts, creating smaller chips that can then be packaged together to operate as a single system, to provide potential benefits that can include improved energy efficiency, faster system development cycle time, and reduced costs. However, packaging advances are needed to move chiplets from research to mass production more quickly and efficiently, driven by the rapid pace of innovation in AI computing. This latest agreement builds on an existing collaboration between ASMPT and IBM, resulting last year in the debut of a new hybrid bonding approach that optimizes bonding quality between two chiplets.
