Spectator Sports
How spectator sports are reshaped as AGI capability advances.
The bottom line
Only about 15% of Spectator Sports is information work today — the rest is physical, and moves slowly. The exposure is concentrated in the back office: the books, the paperwork, the scheduling, the marketing.
Why: Grounded in the NAICS lens and industry description, the core value-producing work consists of live sporting events, independent athletes, racing participants, and sports trainers. This output is intrinsically physical, relying on human or mechanical athletic performance and live event execution, placing the industry firmly in the physical band.
