The fractured agenda
BY THE TIME NEGOTIATORS FROM AROUND THE WORLD gathered in the Amazonian city of Belém in November to discuss the future of climate action, the world had already experienced an alarming year: near-record global temperatures, unprecedented heat waves across continents, and extreme flooding that scientists say would have been virtually impossible without human-driven warming.

AI'S NEXT FRONTIER IS HERE
In 1950, when computing was little more than automated arithmetic and simple logic, Alan Turing asked a question that reverberates today: Can machines think? It took remarkable imagination to see what he saw—intelligence might someday be built rather than born.

Artificial intelligence is the most impactful technological development of our time— more than computers or the internet and, perhaps, comparable to the Industrial Revolution, but happening on a much faster timescale.

The journalist and the jinx in a suburban standoff
CLAIRE DANES GETS A LOT OF ATTENTION for her “cry face.” It is, indeed, a sight to behold. Engulfed by waves of sorrow, her chin vibrates, her eyes scrunch, the corners of her mouth turn down as though tugged by invisible weights.

LIVING IN PUBLIC
“The camera eats first.” A decade ago, that phrase was a joke about influencers and their avocado toast. Now it's shorthand for how every corner of life—dinners, cleaning, milestones, even grief—can be packaged for public consumption. We live in a world where intimacy has become inventory, where the difference between living and posting is often just a matter of lighting.

5 migraine symptoms that aren't headaches
NEARLY 40 MILLION people in the U.S. suffer from migraines, making the painful disorder one of the most common that neurologists treat. It's also among the most confusing. Because of the many ways it can show up, it can take more than a decade to receive an accurate diagnosis.

The food pyramid may be back on the menu
EARLY PUBLIC NUTRITION ADVICE CAME AS A WARNING. Wilbur O. Atwater, a chemist and renowned nutritionist, wrote in an 1902 edition of the U.S. Department of Agriculture's (USDA) digest, Farmers' Bulletin, that \"Unless care is exercised in selecting food, a diet may result which is one-sided or badly balanced—that is, one in which either protein or fuel ingredients (carbohydrate and fat) are provided in excess ... The evils of overeating may not be felt at once, but sooner or later they are sure to appear.\"

A seductive Dangerous Liaisons remix, with feminist intentions
There are no heroes in Les Liaisons Dangereuses, Pierre Choderlos de Laclos' 1782 novel of end-stage French aristocratic decadence. Its chief villain is Marquise Isabelle de Merteuil, a master manipulator who exploits her former lover the Vicomte de Valmont's resurgent desire for her with a wager that dooms them both. As a teenage Fiona Apple dryly noted: “It's a sad, sad world when a girl will break a boy just because she can.”

Brothers in arms, and Shakespeare
THE NEW FILM HAMNET, BASED ON MAGGIE O'FARRELL'S award-winning 2020 novel, imagines how William Shakespeare wrote Hamlet in a haze of grief over the death of his son. In a sly bit of casting, director Chloé Zhao, the Oscar-winning filmmaker behind Nomadland, chose brothers to play the doomed child and the actor portraying his onstage avatar.

The real reason we fail to feed those in need
FOOD IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN LIFE AND DEATH. Everyone knows this. But it’s also the difference between stability and instability, union and division, and peace and war. I have had a front-row seat to some of the worst recent humanitarian crises—from Yemen and Syria to Afghanistan and Gaza—and this has been true, time and time again.
