This is the text (if you need help).

TIME magazine has awarded its 2025 Person of the Year to the "architects of AI". The award is for "the person or persons who most affected the news and our lives, for good or ill, and embodied what was important about the year". The architects include CEOs from the world's top tech companies. They brought about "one of the biggest physical infrastructure projects of all time." TIME said 2025 was the year that AI showed its potential to change the world.

TIME commented on the impact of the AI architects. It wrote that it was difficult to avoid hearing news about the "rapid advancement of a technology and the people driving it," and about how disruptive AI would be. He added that few people "could talk about the future without invoking the impact of this technological revolution". However, he also noted the negatives of AI. These include energy requirements, job losses, misinformation, and cyberattacks.
