Artificial intelligence is changing football.
Coaches can now use AI and advanced analytics to evaluate players, identify patterns, anticipate opponents, and even help decide whether to go for it on fourth down.
But what happens when the computer's recommendation conflicts with the coach's experience and judgment?
On the next The Professor is Live!, Mark Salisbury and producer Rikko Smart are joined by Jay Paterno—football coach, author, speaker, and former Penn State assistant coach—to explore what AI can teach us about coaching...and leadership.
Jay offers a particularly intriguing idea: perhaps AI's greatest value isn't telling leaders what to do. Perhaps it's challenging the assumptions behind what they already believe.
