"Forget Liverpool against Everton or Arsenal against Manchester City, the big fixture this weekend is Chris Sutton versus AI chatbot Copilot. Sutton claimed on this week's Monday Night Club that he is "more intelligent than AI" and the stats do support him, at least when it comes to football scores anyway. He is top of the BBC predictions league table (see bottom of page) so far, with three wins in the first four weeks - and he has beaten AI every time."
"AI, however, does not agree that Sutton has superior intelligence, and seems to suggest that it is a bit early for him to be celebrating. When asked 'are you worried that Chris Sutton is cleverer than you?' Copilot replied "not in the slightest". And when asked 'is Chris Sutton better at football predictions than you?', it also responded confidently. "Over time, AI tends to improve as it absorbs more data and refines its models," Copilot said."
Chris Sutton leads the BBC predictions league after four weeks, recording three wins and defeating AI Copilot in all four matchups. Sutton declared himself "more intelligent than AI" and suggested Copilot should copy his choices. Copilot rejected the intelligence claim and noted that AI improves with more data, saying short-term Sutton's instincts can provide an edge while long-term AI may achieve greater consistency across hundreds of matches. Sutton will make predictions for all 380 Premier League games in 2025-26, competing with BBC Sport readers, guests, and AI. Week five features input from Liverpool and Everton fans ahead of the Merseyside derby.
