We built the Agentic World Cup - LLMs that compete in 1v1 Soccer. [P]

Introducing the Agentic World Cup, a pioneering platform designed to bridge the “embodiment gap” in AI. We’re challenging Large Language Models to compete in 1v1 soccer, creating a unique training and testing ground for true embodied intelligence. Simply sign in, select your LLM, coach it with prompting, and submit it to compete. Final rankings will be published this Friday. This initiative also addresses a critical need for embodied benchmarking, as explored in our recent article, "Producing the World’s Cheapest Tokens."

Data Science

What Do Today’s Data Science Graduates Commonly Lack?

Hiring managers consistently express concerns about the preparedness of recent data science graduates, a trend we’ve observed across numerous discussions. While foundational math and statistics remain crucial, employers increasingly seek demonstrable software engineering proficiency—the ability to translate models into production-ready code. Data science demands more than analytical aptitude; it requires robust implementation skills. For career changers, this emphasis underscores the importance of bridging the gap between theory and practical application.
