Artificial intelligence draws the path to the throne for the 2022 World Cup champion

At the 2010 World Cup, the octopus Paul became famous around the world when he accurately predicted the results of 12/14 matches of this World Cup, including the final.

12 years later, at The 2022 World Cup is taking place in Qatar no longer needs animals to make predictions, scientists have built Artificial intelligence software analyzes hundreds of thousands of cases to make predictions about the champion.

First is the artificial intelligence software built by Joshua Bull, Professor of Mathematics. at Oxford University (UK) and colleagues. Based on many factors such as FIFA rankings, each country’s population, bookmakers’ betting odds, how many players of the national team play together. each other in a club, the average age of the players… this software predicts that Brazil will be crowned champion of the 2022 World Cup after defeating Belgium in the final.

Part This artificial intelligence software also predicts the positions of teams after the qualifying round ends and predicts the scenario of the knockout round matches.

The same prediction is the artificial intelligence built by Nick Barlow and colleagues at the National Institute for Data Science and Artificial Intelligence Alan Turing (Older brother). This artificial intelligence software has built more than 100 thousand different scenarios at World Cup 2022 and gave the results that Brazil is the team with the highest possibility of winning the championship with a probability of 25 1%. ; Followed by Belgium (18 9%) Argentina (13 2%) France (11%)…

Notably, although highly appreciated, this artificial intelligence predicts Germany only 1 7%. The ability to win is behind Denmark (3 1%), Portugal (3%) or Croatia (1 9%).

Al Jazeera – news agency The famous host country Qatar has also built an artificial intelligence called Kashef to predict the team that will win the championship at the 2022 World Cup. Kashef uses data such as FIFA rankings, historical player list. The competition history of the teams in previous World Cups… to make analysis and predictions.

As well as the two artificial intelligence software mentioned above on Kashef predicted that Brazil will be crowned champion of this year’s tournament after surpassing France in the final. Notably, up to now, Kashef has correctly predicted the results of 3/4 matches that took place at the 2022 World Cup (only incorrectly predicted the results of the US and Wales match when Kashef predicted the US would be the winning team).

OPTA, a sports data analysis company, has also built artificial intelligence software based on the data this company holds to predict the 2022 World Cup champion team. Final results Brazil is the team with the highest chance of winning the championship (15% chance of winning) ranked above Argentina (12 6%) France (12 2%) Spain (9 1%)…

Electronic Arts (EA) game company – famous for the FIFA football game series has also built a Artificial intelligence software to simulate all 64 matches that will take place at the 2022 World Cup.

This artificial intelligence predicts that the 2022 World Cup final will be a confrontation between two teams. “Football kings” Messi and Ronaldo when the Argentina and Portugal teams will face each other. As a result, Messi and his teammates will overcome Portugal to lift the championship trophy at this year’s tournament.

It can be seen that with an even squad and many stars in most parts Artificial intelligence software predicts that Brazil will be crowned champion of this year’s World Cup.

Notably, soccer king Pele, who is famous for… guessing completely wrong, also predicted that the Brazilian team will win. championship. If this really happens, not only will artificial intelligence predict correctly, but Pele will also, for the first time in history, accurately predict the team that will win the World Cup.

Anyway, all predictions still just stopping at the prediction level as the round ball always has many interesting surprises. Previously at the 2018 World Cup, artificial intelligence software also made different predictions about the team that would win the championship but the results… were all wrong.< /p>
