Nobody Told Me AI Could Do This
Pete Cooper shows how he turned golf simulator statistics into immediate coaching on ball position and strike rate using an LLM.
Video summary
Pete Cooper shares a personal golf-simulator experiment. He photographed the statistics from his shots, uploaded them to a large language model and received suggestions about ball position, strike rate and other adjustments.
He says that making those changes improved his golf. The short offers this as an informal example of using AI to interpret personal performance data and generate ideas, not as professional coaching or a guarantee of the same outcome for others.

Good day. There's a lot of talk about AI changing the workplace, changing our jobs. What about if it could help us enjoy ourselves like playing golf? Well, I proved it this weekend. I was at a golf simulator and I took a few photos of the statistics that my shots were producing. I uploaded them to an LLM, and you can probably guess which one. Lo and behold, it gave me advice about ball position, strike rate, all sorts of things. I made those adjustments. Lo and behold, I improved my golf. So, pretty cool, huh?
