World Cup AI predictor now lets users ask daft what-ifs The team behind the AI Octopus Euro 2024 predictor has updated its simulator for the 2026 FIFA World Cup, this time allowing users to throw natural-language scenarios at the model and see how the tournament might shake out. "Sensible questions work – a red card, a key injury, a heat wave, a squad switching base camp – but so do …
What if fans couldn't get visas to see the World Cup?
What if ICE deported a referee to a 3rd country?
What if teams were "intensively checked" on arrival in the US on the tarmac?
What if a team had to fly in from Mexico for every US-based game?
What if the cost of supporting your team was too high due to stupid hotel and transport costs?
Oh, sorry, we've had all these already.
By the way, where's Cilla?
nowhere I can visit without the fucking world cup popping up?
This is the most corrupt and expensive (to fans) world cup to date. The only thing it has shown me is that a corrupt organisation like fifa is happy to go to bed with a dysfunctional government and president that currently are grinding the united states and the world into some sort of dystopian farce.
> fifa is happy to go to bed with a dysfunctional government and president
What? How can you say that? I mean, it's not as if FIFA did anything creepy, anything resembling bribing a truculent infant by handing over a completely madey-uppy "Peace Prize" just because he was blubbing that the other boy got one and he wanted it more!

Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, Paraguay, and Uruguay, home to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capybara, fight it out. Canada, Mexico, and the US, home to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_American_beaver try for second place. Everyone else can go home.
Are you sure you're safe there? I would have thought MS would have shoved world cup advertising in the start menu .
This from the BBC last month...
In 1970, England's footballers travelled to Mexico to start the defence of their World Cup title.
Their goalkeeper, Gordon Banks, was in top form, pulling off what many regard as the save of the century fending off a Pele header during a group stage match.
But a severe bout of what was thought to be food poisoning ruled him out of the quarter-final against West Germany, which England went on to lose 3-2.
As far-fetched as it may sound, some believed the former Stoke City player, who died in 2019, was poisoned by the CIA, and now a podcast, Foul Play, has looked into those allegations.

This time, they need to clear the field to get the USA into the final, then, when the opposite team have all but left the field due to illness during the match, a last minute substitution will see Trump walk over from the VIP seating area and score the winning goal.
Remember, the spooks are on home turf
Just to make sure, DHS will swoop to cart off the opposition goalie (if he's still around), on some visa irregularity.
Far fetched? Yes, I forgot my medication this morning, but let's just wait and see
