Google DeepMind Unveils AI Football Coach

Researchers at Google DeepMind collaborated with English Premier League club Liverpool to develop an AI football coach. The geometric deep learning model TacticAI was trained on a dataset of 7,176 corner kicks from the English Premier League from 2020 to 2023. After analyzing corner kicks with different player configurations, it can suggest positional improvements. In a study, experts including data scientists, a video analyst, and a coaching assistant chose TacticAI's recommendations over existing strategies 90% of the time.
