Today, those once-futuristic ideas have materialized through innovations like internet and the iPhone, which debuted in 2007. According to Pew Research, 91 percent of Americans now own a smartphone—placing a camera, GPS, digital wallet and even translation software on a single, readily available portable device. 1975 “It’s the blue-collar workers who are bearing the brunt of the slump,” Newsweek wrote, citing a 16 percent unemployment rate in construction.

FOR YEARS, HOLLYWOOD AND MANY CELEB-rities have sought to distance themselves from President Donald Trump and past associations with him. But Netflix’s newest reality show, Members Only: Palm Beach, has women jockeying to establish their closeness to him and his exclusive club, Mar-a-Lago.

“Normalizing people in spaces [in TV]…makes the world a safer place for everybody.” How would you describe the central premise of The Copenhagen Test? MELISSA BARRERA: It’s like a spy show about a guy whose brain gets hacked. So he’s broadcasting his eyes and his ears [to] the hacker. Then they have to Truman Show his life so that they control what he sees and hears. SIMU LIU: I just loved the hook.

How does the show approach diversity without it feeling like tokenism? LIU: I really enjoyed the way that it’s presented…

WITH ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE DOMINATING global business news, we wanted to gain insight into how corporate executives are thinking about AI implementation. Is AI a good or bad thing? How much are they using AI, and what benefits are they seeing? How are they adjusting organizational processes and structures in light of AI? In conjunction with The Official Board, we sent a survey to corporate executives in June 2025. We received 240 responses, well diversified by industry and region. What we learned is that there is a disconnect between the splashy AI news headlines and what executives are seeing in practice. According to these executives, the AI myths do not reflect the AI reality. MYTH _ AI is a threat. “Experts predict ‘superintelligent’ AI could build a robot army to wipe…

AFTER FIVE SEASONS PLAYING GREGORY ON ABC’S ABBOTT ELEMENTARY, Tyler James Williams is adding a new title: director. “I have been wanting to get my hands dirty in another aspect of the process.” With his acting background, “My brain thinks in act breaks and pacing, and I guess finding the funniest way to see and show something.” This evolution is just another notch in an already impressive career, with his breakout lead role as a child actor on Everybody Hates Chris and in the film Dear White People. “There’s definitely a consistent thread...a guy who’s trying to find his way ultimately, who may be a bit more awkward and outside of the norm than most people, but who’s sincerely trying.” With multiple Emmy nominations for Abbott, Williams said of his…
