You sound so sure of that, but I have seen people catch a ball, and I am not so sure that any artificial person should be any more aware of the tremendous maths they are "solving"
From the perspective of a game with far fewer rules, "trying to imitate AI" might not mean anything like what you are thinking.
> but I have seen people catch a ball
from what i remember, dogs sometimes run in curves so that the perceived trajectory of the object they try to catch is more linear
so not everything might be in-brain math but also good trickery
