Many existing sports have their roots in hundreds (if not thousands) of years of human tradition. But what if you asked computers to create a sport? You now know how that can turn out. The design agencyAKQA has introduced Speedgate, reportedly the primary sport expected by using an AI. The occasion has six-participant teams competing on a discipline with three open-ended gates. Once you have kicked the ball thru a middle gate (which you cannot step thru), your group can rating on one of the stop gates -- whole with a further point in case you ricochet the ball thru the gate. You can not live nonetheless, either, because the ball has to move every three seconds.

AKQA created the sport by feeding facts on 400 existing sports to a neural network, which then created simple sports ideas and guidelines. A massive chew of those had been completely unrealistic (exploding Frisbees, each person?), so the team progressively whittled down the eligible characteristics until there have been three remaining sports activities. Playtesting led to Speedgate triumphing the prize.

The agency even used AI to expand the sport's logo and barely awkward motto ("face the ball to be the ball to be above the ball").

While the sport was created as an exercise for Design Week, it might just become a serious sport.AKQA is talking to the Oregon Sports Authority about Speedgate, and there might be an intramural league in the summer. The company is encouraging others to start their own leagues. Speedgate probably isn't going to replace conventional sports in the hearts of fans, but it is an example of how AI can be useful even in (currently) human-centric fields like sports. It's dubious that everybody could have without problems devised the idea on their very own, even though the underlying concepts are surprisingly easy.

Let's block commercials! (Why?)
