Bayer Leverkusen were once again late to find the net, but claimed a 2-1 comeback win against Hoffenheim on Saturday and increased their advantaged at the top of the Bundesliga standings to 13 points.

Maximilian Beier put Hoffenhiem ahead in the 33rd minute and his goal looked set to be the winner, especially with goalkeeper Oliver Baumann having a stunning performance to deny Leverkusen several times.

But the league leaders didn't give up hopes and first found the equalizer with Robert Andrich in the 88th minute, before taking all three points thanks to Patrik Schick's stoppage-time winner.

Leverkusen are now 13 points ahead of second-placed Bayern Munich, who host Borussia Dortmund later, and unbeaten in 39 matches across all competitions this season.

Elsewhere, Freiburg routed Borussia Mönchengladbach 3-0, VfL Wolfsburg defeated Werder Bremen 2-0, while RB Leipzig v Mainz and Eintracht Frankfurt v Union Berlin both ended in a goalless draw.

TikTok argues that the law violates the U.S. Constitution's commitment to "both free speech and individual liberty."

Kevin Eisenfrats is developing the 'male IUD'
Interest in male birth control has increased in the past few years, especially since the U.S. overturned Roe vs. Wade, which protected a woman's right to have an abortion. Since then, states have tried to make abortion nearly impossible, prompting an increased look at contraceptives to allow both men and women to have more control over family planning. This conversation has led to the topic of male birth control — something doctors haven't quite mastered until now, perhaps.

OpenAI says it's building a tool to let content creators 'opt out' of AI training
OpenAI says that it's developing a tool to let creators better control how their content's used in training generative AI. The tool, called Media Manager, will allow creators and content owners to identify their works to OpenAI and specify how they want those works to be included or excluded from AI research and training. The goal is to have the tool in place by 2025, OpenAI says, as the company works with "creators, content owners and regulators" toward a standard -- perhaps through the industry steering committee it recently joined.
