New York: Time magazine on Thursday named the “Architects of AI” as its 2025 Person of the Year, saying the past year marked the moment when the true power and inevitability of artificial intelligence became visible to the world.

Time described 2025 as the year artificial intelligence “roared into view” with irreversible momentum.

“For delivering the age of thinking machines, for wowing and worrying humanity, for transforming the present and transcending the possible, the Architects of AI are TIME’s 2025 Person of the Year,” the magazine said in a social media announcement.

Editor-in-chief Sam Jacobs said the selection deliberately honoured “the individuals who imagined, designed, and built AI,” rather than the technology itself, though Time has in the past chosen concepts and objects.
