Questions have been raised over Pangram’s accuracy, and French media outlets have found other AI detection programmes that identified It Was That or Die as very probably written by a human.

The organisers of France’s most prestigious literary prize said they had removed a critically acclaimed novel by a Canadian-Haitian writer from the longlist after an anonymous online account claimed the book was “almost entirely” written by AI. The Académie Goncourt, a Paris-based literary organisation, said on Friday its decision to withdraw Thélyson Orélien’s novel C’était ça ou mourir (It Was That or Die) was “driven by the desire to preserve the integrity of the Goncourt prize and the academy itself, whose central role is to promote and honour literature written by women and men”.

He now has seven wins this season, including a run of five in a row, is in a strong position to close out the championship and Wolff compared his ability to learn and improve to that of advanced artificial intelligence.

Toto Wolff has compared Kimi Antonelli to the greats of Formula One after the Mercedes driver’s remarkable victory at the Italian Grand Prix where he came back to take the flag from 19th place on the grid. The Mercedes team principal cited the win as similar to some of the best made by Lewis Hamilton, the seven-time world champion, and said that Antonelli would likely remember the race as one of the greatest of his career.

Roles centered on human interaction, responsibility and physical oversight in medicine, nursing, engineering and education are expected to persist because people prefer humans for care, difficult news and large-scale physical work.

On 14 September 2026 The Guardian reported expert advice on choosing degrees that may resist AI displacement. Charlie Ball of Jisc said trying to futureproof a 45-year career is hard, but jobs hinging on face-to-face interaction, physical oversight and human responsibility are less likely to be replaced, citing civil engineering, R&D creativity, medicine, nursing, midwifery and teaching.
