Time Magazine has named its Person of the Year, choosing to honour the 'Architects of AI' with a cover design recreating the iconic 'Lunch atop a Skyscraper' photograph. While the annual announcement is always contentious, this year's choice has perhaps been Time's most controversial yet, sparking outrage among AI critics.
While some of the best magazine covers aren't afraid to be provocative, it's clear that Time Magazine's new cover is engineered to spark strong feelings from both sides of the AI conversation. Whether you see it as a vision of the future or a desecration of the past, Time's new cover is everything that AI represents – bold, unflinching yet derivative.
