With accurate player-availability predictions for all active players, AI-powered decision-making is dramatically improved around three dimensions: 1) Risk management: If a productive wide-receiver is likely to get hurt, for example, a team might invest more in talented backups, to minimize drop-off in team performance during injury. 2) Training and targeted interventions: If AI suggests a player is injury-prone, teams can target that player with customized training, nutrition, or other regimens

When something bad happens to you that’s beyond your control, pretending you can control future events by avoiding mistakes can be a way to regain a feeling of control. The problem is, a habit of blaming yourself can be incredibly painful. And the truth is, no matter how perfectly we behave, we can’t control the behavior of others, so blaming yourself for everything is not aligned with reality.
