September 21, 2026
For the cover of the September 28, 2026, issue, the cartoonist Barry Blitt portrays the rising fears surrounding the exponential growth of A.I. and the possibility of its being a threat to humanity. “As a dedicated hypochondriac, I’ve had a number of pretty good conversations with Google’s Gemini chatbot, about all manner of ailments. But I understand that A.I. may not always be looking out for my well-being,” Blitt said.
在2026年9月28日刊的封面上，漫画家巴里·布利特描绘了人们对人工智能指数级增长及其可能威胁人类的日益加剧的担忧。“作为一个资深的疑病症患者，我和谷歌的Gemini聊天机器人就各种病痛进行过不少相当不错的对话。但我知道，人工智能未必总是为我的健康着想。”布利特说。
