Blending elements of rugby, croquet, soccer and Ultimate Frisbee, Speedgate, as it’s known, relies on collective cunning and strategy, according to Whitney Jenkins, AKQA’s creative director. Each Speedgate team has six players, made of forwards and defenders, who attempt to kick a ball through a series of gates to score –– on either side of a long field. When using their hands to move the ball, passes must be made from below the waist.
The team fed information about 400 different sports into a neural network –– a set of algorithms designed to find underlying relationships by mimicking how the human brain processes information –– and waited for AI to generate a series of new concepts and rules. The team’s initial guidelines offered few instructions: Developers wanted to create a sport that was easy to learn, accessible to different types of athletes and could be played outdoors or on a hard court in a wheelchair.
Developers took each offbeat suggestion in stride, appreciating AI’s ability to see possibilities so far outside expectation that they at times resembled the musings of a child’s imagination or dream-like possibilities emanating from the human subconscious.
