Is this the beginning of the rise of the machines? Last week saw AI triumph outright for the first time in our Premier League predictions battle, although BBC Sport's own expert human, Chris Sutton, points out he is still top of the overall league this season. This time, as well as AI, Sutton faces a different hi-tech challenger. His guest opponent for this weekend's fixtures is a computer game: Football Manager 26, the latest edition of the long-running management simulation series. The FM26 game engine has played out this weekend's matches and you can see its results, including goalscorers and red cards, below. Miles Jacobson, the studio director of Sports Interactive, the company behind Football Manager, also joined in.

Arriving home at Los Angeles international airport, Sara Hussein is asked by immigration and customs officers to step aside, then taken to an interview room. The fundamentals of this scene are familiar – you've probably watched something like it in a film, or dreamed about it happening to you; perhaps it already has. But Sara lives in a new world, several decades in the future, and she is being arrested because Scout, the state's AI security system, has flagged something irregular inside her mind. Sara seems unexceptional: she's a museum archivist, married and mother to young twins. She once had an argument with her husband Elias after he impulsively part-exchanged the family Toyota for a Volvo.

Fox News Flash top sports headlines are here. Check out what's clicking on Foxnews.com. Canada Soccer has parted ways with Bev Priestman. The decision to relieve Priestman of her coaching duties comes after an independent review was launched into her role in a drone surveillance scandal at this past summer's Olympics in Paris. Assistant coach Jasmine Mander and analyst Joseph Lombardi were also relieved of duty as Canada Soccer released the findings of the investigation.

The Canadian women's soccer team was dealt a heavy blow Saturday after FIFA announced the women's national team would be deducted six points from the standings in the Paris Olympics after staffers were caught using drones to spy on New Zealand during closed-door training sessions. Following its investigation, the FIFA Appeal Committee announced the Canadian Soccer Association was responsible for failing to ensure its staff members were in compliance with Olympic rules. "CSA was found responsible for failing to respect the applicable FIFA regulations in connection with its failure to ensure the compliance of its participating officials of the Games of the XXXIII Olympiad Paris 2024 Final Competition (OFT) with the prohibition on flying drones over any training sites," the statement said. "The officials were each found responsible for offensive behavior and violation of the principles of fair play in connection with the CSA's Women's representative team's drones usage in the scope of the OFT." Head coach Bev Priestman was removed from her position Thursday night after two staff members were sent home from Paris when an investigation found that analyst Joseph Lombardi had allegedly used a drone to spy on New Zealand's practice sessions.

Canada national team officials have used drones prior to the Paris Olympics and their Tokyo 2020 women's gold medal could be tarnished, officials said on Friday. The developments emerged after Bev Priestman was removed as Olympics head coach for Canada's women's team, following the flying of a drone over New Zealand's training session on Monday. Priestman, 38, was judged as "highly likely" to have been aware of the incident, leading to her suspension by Canada Soccer. Canadian media reported that both of the country's senior teams - men's and women's - have relied on drones for years. Canada Soccer chief executive Kevin Blue confirmed he had received "anecdotal feedback" related to drone use during the men's team's run to the Copa America semi-finals this summer and that coach Jesse Marsch had only been made aware of it after the event.

The drone scandal surrounding the Canadian women's soccer team could have bigger implications than just this year's Games in Paris. Head coach Bev Priestman was removed from her position on Thursday night after two staff members were sent home from Paris after an investigation found that analyst Joseph Lombardi had used a drone to spy on New Zealand's practice sessions. Head coach Beverly Priestman reacts during the Women's Gold Medal match between Canada and Sweden on day 14 of the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games at International Stadium Yokohama on Aug. 6, 2021 in Yokohama, Kanagawa, Japan. "Over the past 24 hours, additional information has come to our attention regarding previous drone use against opponents, predating the Paris 2024 Olympic Games," Canada Soccer CEO Kevin Blue said in a statement. "In light of these new revelations, Canada Soccer has made the decision to suspend Women's National Soccer Team Head Coach, Bev Priestman for the remainder of the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, and until the completion of our recently announced independent external review."

"I'm not a fan of AI," Nebojša Vujinović Vujo says. The admission surprises me: He has built a bustling business by snapping up abandoned news outlets and other websites and stuffing them full of algorithmically generated articles. Although he accepts that his model rankles writers and readers alike, he says he's simply embracing an unstoppable new tool--large language models--in the same way people rationally swapped horse-drawn buggies for gas-powered vehicles. They're making my planet bad," he says. I connected with Vujo after digging into the strange afterlife of indie women's blog The Hairpin, which shut down in 2018. In place of the voicey, funny blog posts it was known for, the site began churning out AI-generated, search-engine-optimized pablum about dream interpretations and painfully generic relationship advice like "effective communication is vital." When I emailed an address listed on the zombie site's About Us page, Vujo responded, claiming that it was just one of more than 2,000 sites he operates, in an AI-content-fueled fiefdom built by acquiring once-popular domains fallen on hard times. He's the CEO of the digital marketing firm Shantel, which monetizes its AI-populated sites through programmatic ads, sponsored content, and selling the placement of "backlinks" to website owners trying to boost their credibility with search engines. He often targets distressed media sites because they have built-in audiences and a history of ranking highly in search results. The foundation of that business is a long-established practice known as domain squatting--buying up web domains that once belonged to established brands and profiting off their reputations with Google and other search engines. Lily Ray, senior director of SEO at the marketing agency Ampsive, calls it "the underbelly of the SEO industry." But Vujo is part of a wave of entrepreneurs giving this old trade a new twist by using generative AI. It's dusk where I live in Chicago when I talk via Zoom with Nebojša Vujinović Vujo. It's midnight in Belgrade, Serbia, where he lives with his girlfriend and their toddler, but he's wide awake and chatty. Vujo attributes his erratic sleep schedule to years of late nights working as a DJ and still makes music--he likes to mix pop with Balkan folk and is working on a new song called "Fat Lady." But right now he's eager to talk, human-to-human, about his AI-fueled hustle. He gets why writers are unhappy that their work has been erased and replaced by clickbait. But he defends his choices, pointing out that his life has been tougher than that of the average American blogger. Although ethnically Serbian, Vujo was born in what is now known as Bosnia and Herzegovina, and his family fled during the breakup of Yugoslavia. "I had two wars I escaped.

Fashion and lifestyle have a knack for the surprise. The out-of-the-blue rise of butter moulding, say, or the sudden coolness of a shoe with a cloven toe. Divergence and disparateness are the mood music for 2024. What this means for fashion is yet more extreme luxury, both of the stealth wealth and exhibitionist varieties. But there will also be more emphasis than ever on thrifting, textile recycling, and the development of new materials, especially in the luxury market. Expect more seaweed yarns, plastic-free sequins and grape leathers like those shown by designer Stella McCartney at Cop28. With several elections set for 2024, slogan T-shirts will be used once more for political statements and to pledge allegiance rather than for more personal messages. Expect Maga caps and merch in the vein of Keir Starmer's Sparkle With Starmer tee, turned around at speed after he was glitter-bombed at Labour conference.
