  "account": "TIME's 2026 list of the top 100 'Architects of AI' has been announced, omitting influential figures such as Jensen Huang of Nvidia and AMD CEO Lisa Su. Instead, the list features Ben Affleck, Senator Bernie Sanders, and Paris Hilton among others. In addition to TIME's Architect of AI and Person of the Year designation for 2025, Huang has appeared on every previous edition of the TIME100 AI. This year, Nvidia's sole entry is Josh Parker, the head of sustainability, while other prominent industry leaders like Broadcom CEO Hock Tan, Micron CEO Sanjay Mehrotra, SMIC co-CEO Liang Mong Song, and Huawei HiSilicon president He Tingbo have been included. The list also features Cerebras' Andrew Feldman, CoreWeave's Michael Intrator, and Nscale's Josh Payne. Parker's profile highlights data center energy and water consumption, Nvidia's tripling of Scope 3 emissions, and the transition to 100% liquid cooling. TIME editor-in-chief Sam Jacobs explained that the selection was led by editor Ayesha Javed and aimed to represent the year's key storylines and the most influential figures in driving AI developments. This edition of the TIME100 AI places emphasis on new additions to TIME's AI community, with notable figures such as Mark Zuckerberg, Demis Hassabis, Sundar Pichai, and Satya Nadella also appearing on the list.",
