There are plenty of contenders for the crown, but the Seattle Seahawks remain the unchallenged masters of the touchdown celebration game. We’ve had a hit-by-pitch fight and a fully choreographed show-tune performance, and now a tribute to one of the finest moments of NBA legend Allen Iverson’s career:

Yes, that’s Tyler Lockett doing “The Stepover,” the move Iverson performed on then-Lakers player, future ex-Cavs coach Tyronn Lue in the 2001 NBA Finals. Simply brilliant.

The Seahawks beat the Carolina Panthers 30-27 on a last-second field goal on Sunday. They’re still a long way from their glory Super Bowl days of a few seasons back, but they’re sure having fun this year.

China is the runaway leader in generative AI patent applications followed by the US, the UN says

The technology, which offers the potential to boost efficiency and speed up scientific discoveries but also raises concerns about jobs and workers, was linked to about 54,000 inventions in the decade through 2023, the World Intellectual Property Organization reported. More than a quarter of those inventions emerged last year — a testament to the explosive growth and interest in the technology since generative AI vaulted into broad public consciousness in late 2022, WIPO said.
