The purpose of the
Olympic Games in the Global Village remains the same: promote peace and unity within the international
community through the medium of sports. What does change is the venue and the kinds of sports played.
Virtual reality and video gaming comprise the venue for the games. Gone are the brick and mortar field houses, gyms, swimming pools, arenas, and expensive sporting gear required to compete. In their place are cloud storage servers, ultra high speed internet connections, and a host of specialty gaming and/or virtual reality devices.

In the Industrial Park, the competition revolved around superior physical prowess driven by disciplined mental control. In the Global Village, superior mental prowess driven by acquired skill and knowledge are the basis of all competition.
In some of the gaming sports, players are assisted by Anatomical Intelligence applications. This continues to evolve despite protests from older competitors who compare it to doping. However, their protest has yet to evoke a change to the IOC Anti-Doping Rules which make no mention of Anatomical Intelligence.
So far, the most disruptive challenge to IOC operations has been cyber security. The most complex challenge is finding ways to either accommodate the tsunami of mentaletes who qualify, or limit them using fair and comprehensive trials. In the interest of peace and unity, the IOC is leaning toward global accommodation.
