Theft & a chase! The craziest AI video about the Ballon d'Or

The race for the coveted Ballon d'Or trophy is more wide open than it has been in years. This year's men's vote has plenty of stories to tell about the individual contenders. A recently released, almost cinematic AI video brilliantly sums up the spectacle. It'll probably play out exactly like this—or completely differently. We may still not know who will ultimately take home the golden ball, but the clip itself deserves an award. Just under three minutes of pure entertainment—and, for once, not slop.
