The Saturday Edition brings together the serious, the surprising and the slightly ridiculous stories of the week.

This week: whether the AI boom is getting ahead of itself; why takeover activity is suddenly heating up in Australia; whether another interest rate rise is inevitable; a crackdown on noisy passengers; and two very different medical breakthroughs involving ageing brains and baldness.

Sean Aylmer and Michael Thompson go head-to-head, with Adam Lang picking the winner. And this week, the result sparks an extraordinary dummy spit.
