We’re teaming up with S.E. Palmeiras, the first football club to meaningfully build upon TacticAI: our AI system that can help simulate field scenarios and predict open play dynamics up to 8 seconds in advance. ⚽ To map the pitch, TacticAI uses graph neural networks - treating all 22 players as individual nodes and their physical interactions as connections. This allows the club's data science department to virtually drag and drop players to test different defensive setups in real time.
 Why does this matter beyond sports? A live match is a masterclass in partial observability and multimodal data. Solving these continuous spatial problems could translate to leaps in robotics, computer games, and more. Find out more about TacticAI → goo.gle/4uv87Gc
