For the oldies who remember the 1969 Zager and Evans hit, ‘In The Year 2525’, they were on to something. One day, we’ll be fielding 11 AIs and be done with it!

Removing obsolete ways of scouting for the first team, to be replaced with more data and AI, and likely increasing the number of youth scouts and data analysts would be my guess.
The club has non-scouting personell working full time with researching the personality, history and circumstances around any player we want. IIRC they're called "Recruitment Security Officers" or something of that sort. Most clubs, and I would be surprised if we're not one of them, also do extensive psychological testing before signing a player.
