At an Oct. 13 dinner in San Francisco celebrating the third TIME100 AI list, attendees talked about guiding AI with regulations, protecting human creativity, and fostering collaboration between human and machine intelligence. Refik Anadol (left), Dataland co-founder and designer of the issue’s cover, argued that “every dataset is a record of life.” time.com/ai-dinner On trend An Oct. 22 TIME100 Impact dinner in NYC included a panel, in partnership with Ralph Lauren and Microsoft, on how AI may shape the future of fashion, with (from left) Microsoft’s Shelley Bransten, Ralph Lauren’s David Lauren, and Scilicet’s Sougwen Chung, moderated by TIME’s Sam Jacobs. time.com/ai-fashion On the covers To illustrate this week’s cover on TIME’s list of the 100 most influential climate leaders, we reached out to an artist who “paints with the…

Jacob McDonald knows he’s lucky to have a good health-insurance plan through his employer, a tech company. But when his company recently updated employees about their options for health care in 2026, he was disappointed to learn that once again, costs were going up. To cover his family of four, McDonald, 47, a network engineer based in Dallas, is being asked to pay 6.5% more than he did last year toward health insurance. “I expected to pay more, but this is the largest increase I can remember,” he says. Ballooning health care costs are driving up the price of insurance for the 154 million Americans who rely on employer-sponsored coverage. Starting this month and into January, employees will be able to pick their plans for the next year during the…

You never know what’s going to stick in the littlest minds. “Sometimes I’ll have kids tell me something their grandmother or coach said—and it might be something that the rest of us would shrug off, but for that child, it really made an impact,” says Amy Morin, a therapist and author of 13 Things Strong Kids Do. That’s why it’s important for parents to get into the habit of repeating the nuggets of wisdom that they hope will become mantras bouncing around in their kids’ minds for years to come. We asked Morin and other therapists to share the easy-to-remember gems they wish every kid knew. 1. “Listen to your shoulder angel.” When Morin talks to kids, she explains that we all have a “devil” on one shoulder, telling us…

Nick Carter CEO AKAYSHA ENERGY Nick Carter’s Akaysha energy is bringing megascale battery energy-storage systems online to support the energy transition. The company’s Waratah Super Battery, located outside of Sydney, came online in 2025 and will be the world’s most powerful when fully operational. It stores excess renewable energy that can be discharged immediately, stabilizing the local grid during extreme weather and power outages. The project has generated over $1 billion in local economic investments since construction began in 2023. What is the single most important action you think should be taken in the next year to advance the climate agenda? The single most important thing that any government in any country can do is to reach a bipartisan position on climate action and the associated energy transition. This issue…

Some days it seems we live in a horrid world where most humans couldn’t give a fig about art. How many people in that world are going to care about a 65-year-old black-and-white movie—one that, for anyone who doesn’t speak French, requires the reading of subtitles? Yet here comes Richard Linklater’s sensational Nouvelle Vague, an agile, witty, elegant picture about the making of Jean-Luc Godard’s cannon-shot of a debut, 1960’s À bout de souffle, known to English speakers as Breathless. Breathless is a movie that possibly only film lovers and bona fide old people care about. What current-day filmmaker would choose it as a subject? Only someone who cares. Nouvelle Vague is the ultimate inside-baseball making-of movie. But even more than that, it’s a picture that stands strong on the…

In the premiere of Down Cemetery Road, a desperate woman walks into a private investigator’s office. “Let me guess,” says the detective, Zoë Boehm (Emma Thompson). “You’ve got a husband. He’s got a secretary. Am I warm?” She is not. Neither a film-noir femme fatale nor a jealous housewife, Sarah Trafford (Ruth Wilson) has come for help in solving a mystery that has little to do with her own life. Her initially inexplicable obsession sets the tone for Apple’s unusually humane conspiracy thriller. Sarah is bombing as the host of a dinner party when a literal explosive goes off in her neighborhood. A little girl, Dinah, is carried out of the wreckage—the sole survivor of a blast that killed her mom. But when Sarah goes to the hospital to drop…

Many modern relationships start with a phone notification—a text from the stranger from last night, a delightful chime that you’re a match, a haptic vibrating your hand. Daters are using ChatGPT and Claude to craft their profiles and witty messages. People are even skipping human dating altogether in favor of AI. It’s fair to say our romantic relationships are becoming dependent on our use of technology. The term digisexual was coined in 2017 to identify those whose primary sexual experiences are mediated by technology, meaning they prefer tech-based sex as opposed to flesh-based sex. By that definition, there’s a growing number of digisexuals out in the dating scene. According to a 2023 Pew Research Center report, 30% of U.S. adults, and 53% under the age of 30, have used a…

When I first started conversion therapy at age 19, I thought I was pursuing healing for what I was led to believe was broken in me. I didn’t want to erase myself. I wanted peace. I wanted to stop feeling like my faith and my sexuality were at war with one another. I sought it out of my own accord. My parents and pastors didn’t force me into therapy, but everything in the culture around me convinced me it was my only option. Conversion therapy sells a promise of transformation, but what it really delivers is a slow disintegration of the soul. You learn to measure your worth by how well you can pretend. You learn to call shame devotion. And you learn that love has conditions. I was in…

This is how the war will start. During a highly charged presidential campaign, a bomb explodes, unleashing panic and a wave of recriminations. Then a Chinese Y-8 reconnaissance aircraft vanishes in Taiwan’s eastern waters. Under the guise of search and rescue, Beijing deploys a massive air and naval force that quarantines the island. Reeling from forced sequestration, Taiwanese society suffers a deluge of propaganda and misinformation, pitting husband against wife, father against son. Political and financial interests foment infighting. By the time the first People’s Liberation Army (PLA) troops arrive, the island has defeated itself. On Aug. 2, people across Taiwan tuned in to this dystopian vision, which debuted on Taiwanese TV as the acclaimed drama Zero Day Attack, courtesy of showrunner Cheng Hsinmei. Over 10 hour-long episodes, Zero Day…

In an early scene in Lynne Ramsay’s brutal, beautiful Die My Love, we see Jennifer Lawrence crawling through a sunny, grassy field on all fours, low to the ground like a sultry panther, as we hear a baby crying somewhere nearby—it turns out he’s been parked, safely, on a porch. We don’t know what Lawrence’s precise, feral belly crawl means—did I mention that she’s clutching a kitchen knife?—except somewhere in our gut we do know. The animal thing that drives us to pair up, to have sex, to fall in love, is the precursor to the adored pink being crying on the porch, the living, wailing, needy thing you’d do anything for. Die My Love, in theaters Nov. 7, is about something no one wants to talk about: not just…

A Brazen daylight heist left the Louvre Museum in Paris reeling on Oct. 19. It took just a few minutes for thieves to execute the robbery, coming away with jewels worth an estimated 88 million euros, once belonging to Napoleon and his empresses. The police investigation remains ongoing. 7-MINUTE RAID French newspaper Le Parisien reported that two of the four thieves, masked and hooded, entered the museum via the Seine-facing facade at around 9:30 a.m. Construction work aided their heist, as a cherry picker allowed them to access the Apollo Gallery jewel room directly. French Interior Minister Laurent Nuñez said the raid lasted just seven minutes. The robbers reportedly escaped on scooters. A crown of the empress Eugénie (pictured) was recovered damaged, apparently dropped by the thieves in their haste…

When Sam Altman arrived at Helion energy’s small Redmond, Wash., office in early 2014, nuclear-fusion textbooks tucked under his arm, the company was focusing its efforts on research and development. By the time he left, several days later, he had persuaded the fusion-energy startup to chart a more aggressive path toward deployment, CEO David Kirtley recalls. A year later, Altman, who was co-founding OpenAI around the same time, invested $9.5 million in Helion, taking the role of chairman. He plowed a further $375 million into Helion in 2021, making it one of the largest personal bets in his multi-billion-dollar portfolio. Once a government-led pursuit, nuclear fusion is now a private-capital race, much of it financed by the same people building energy-hungry AI and pursuing the goal of creating systems with…

VLADIMIR PUTIN HAD DONE HIS HOMEWORK. He knew the layout of the nuclear power plant in southern Ukraine, the source of the water that cools its reactors, and the high-voltage cables that move its electricity. He knew where a shell had recently exploded, punching a hole in the roof of a building, and where a fire had started while Russian troops seized the facility in the spring of 2022. He also knew, perhaps better than anyone, how dangerous it had been to turn the plant into a battleground. “He knew it all very precisely,” says Rafael Grossi, the head of the U.N.’s nuclear watchdog, the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). “Not just in general terms. He knew it all down to the technical details.” Grossi has met with Putin several…

Midway through Monster: The Ed Gein Story, the title character stares into the camera and warns: “You shouldn’t be watching this.” He’s talking to two strangers who’ve interrupted him in the bloody aftermath of a murder. But the closeup makes it clear that Gein, played with eerie gentleness by Charlie Hunnam, is also addressing his audience of Netflix viewers. Then he revs his chainsaw and chases the men. Of course, we keep watching. In the next scene, Gein offers the spectacle of a dead, nude woman, strung up like a carcass in a slaughterhouse. This sequence could easily get lost amid the parade of violence, gore, warped sexuality, and heavy-handed social commentary that makes up this and every season of Ryan Murphy and Ian Brennan’s Monster anthology. Yet it encapsulates…
