Our hope is that through this exciting new editorial coverage that we spark connection, conversation, and most importantly–action.'
'For more than a century, TIME has told the stories of the people and ideas shaping our world,' said TIME Editor in Chief Sam Jacobs. 'With TIME Longevity, we are excited to create a new platform dedicated to spotlighting the leaders and ideas transforming how we think about aging, health, and the profound possibilities of living a longer life.'
The launch of TIME Longevity builds on TIME's robust health coverage, including recent deep dives into cancer breakthroughs, the science of obesity and nutrition, and the shifting economics of care and aging and the launch of franchise, tentpole and events such as, the TIME100 Health List, the TIME100 Impact Dinner: Leaders Shaping the Future of Health, and the TIME100 Health Leadership Forum—all now in their second year.

TIME CEO Jessica Sibley Announces First-Half 2025 Progress and Shares Strategic Outlook on AI Innovation
TIME Chief Executive Officer Jessica Sibley sent the following memo to staff on Monday: Team, As we near the halfway point of 2025, I'm proud to share that TIME is delivering across the board: advancing our mission to be a strong and commercially viable company, harnessing the best of our history while working each and everyday to build the best version of TIME. We are achieving this through our high impact journalism and our ability to engage audiences globally with exclusive reporting as we embrace new ways of storytelling. Our strategic pivot to a B2B-focused model is being realized, through our focused go-to-market approach with integrated partnerships, a rapidly growing global live journalism and events business, and leveraging new platforms and innovations in technology. We continue to remain diligent with our cost management initiatives, as cash-flow positivity remains our number-one business goal. We have improved the cash needs of the business by 83% since 2022. Today, we are forecasting a 24% advertising revenue growth in the first half of 2025 and are currently pacing 39% ahead of 2024's year-to-date bookings. Here are some highlights from the first half of the year: TIME Journalism TIME's newsroom has delivered powerful, agenda-setting journalism to our audience worldwide, including exclusive interviews with global leaders in government such as President Donald Trump on his first 100 days in office, Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese on social media ban for people under 16, and dozens of prominent Democrats on the party's reboot; we have covered major discoveries and advancements in science and technology, including interviews with Google DeepMind CEO Demis Hassabis, Eli Lilly CEO David Ricks, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman and Ben Lamm, CEO of Colossal, the company behind the revival of the dire wolf. We've delivered exclusive profiles in culture and sports, including recent interviews with author Taylor Jenkins Reid, Audra McDonald, Lewis Hamilton and many more. In May, we announced the expansion of our health and science vertical with TIME Longevity, a new editorial platform dedicated to exploring how and why people are living longer, and what this means for individuals, institutions, and the future of society. TIME's reporting drove real-world change—notably, a new ethics law passed in Maryland last month following our coverage of Larry Hogan. The editorial team delivered impactful reporting across formats with breaking news stories like the LA fires, the death of Pope Francis and the appointment of Pope Leo. We published ' F ive Years Later: America Looks for a Way Forward After George Floyd,' produced in collaboration with the Center for Policing Equity, and hosted the TIME Impact Dinner: The Road to Justice. TIME Events also reached new heights this year, with 20 events hosted globally in the first half of 2025. Highlights include our biggest-ever TIME100 Gala and Summit in New York; our fourth annual TIME100 Impact Awards in Dubai; our first-ever combined Women of the Year Gala and Leadership Forum in Los Angeles; and our inaugural TIME100 Philanthropy event in New York City. These gatherings—featuring participants such as Serena Williams, Ed Sheeran, Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei, David Beckham, Lin-Manuel Miranda, Citadel CEO Ken Griffin, and Nicole Kidman, among others—continue to elevate TIME's journalism and community, expanding our reach and impact in meaningful ways. TIME Studios In May, TIME Studios debuted UNTOLD: The Fall of Favre with Netflix, a documentary exploring Brett Favre's controversial career, the dark side of sports stardom and the scandals that marred his legacy. The documentary quickly reached the #1 spot on Netflix's most-viewed movies in the U.S. We also partnered with immersive studio TARGO to release D-Day: The Camera Soldier, a groundbreaking mixed-reality documentary for Apple Vision Pro timed to the 80th anniversary of the end of World War II. The experience reimagines historical storytelling through spatial video, AI-restored archives, and interactive elements. TIME AI Just as we're expanding our impact through premium film and immersive experiences, we're also harnessing the power of AI to bring TIME's trusted journalism to a wider audience. TIME is helping shape the direction of AI in our industry through more than a dozen partnerships by unlocking new opportunities for content distribution, product development, and enterprise productivity. This strategy strengthens our position as a global leader in trusted journalism amid rapid industry change. As any reader of TIME's reporting knows, there are few transformations changing how we live and work today as AI is. We know that the media business is no exception. Here's how we're thinking about AI today. We'd rather be in the room shaping the future than learning about it from a podcast. We are partnering with leading AI platforms; OpenAI, Perplexity, ProRata, and Amazon Alexa to stay at the center of transformation. These partnerships give us direct access to executives, product leaders and early insight into the future of AI-powered media and advertising. This includes OpenAI's recent Media Partner day where we saw early data on the growth of ChatGPT Search and concepts around its soon to-be-released publisher agent toolkit. We are focused on product innovation with the goal of continuing to make our journalism more accessible. We launched the first AI Toolbar on in collaboration with Scale AI, OpenAI, and ElevenLabs for Person of the Year. Now, we're expanding on this theme: Upcoming launch: An on-demand podcast built in partnership with Scale AI, featuring two AI hosts summarizing four top stories from The Brief newsletter. Later this summer: A redesigned Homepage launch will include a podcast module with player, debuting the above-mentioned AI-generated podcast experience to the full audience. This fall: A major upgrade to the AI experience will enable multilingual, personalized AI interactions including AI search, chat, translation and an experiences across the site. As consumers choose AI experiences to access information, we believe TIME increases its reach and relevancy by providing innovative experiences for them within our own website as well. We're building tools that unlock the full value of our archive starting with consumers and scaling to agents. We're building an infrastructure for the AI era: Blockchain authentication of our content via Verify by Fox. Real-time bot tracking via TollBit and ScalePost. OpenAI is now a top 10 traffic referral source. We want to free our teams to focus on impact, not repetition. We've deployed Glean, Perplexity Pro, ChatGPT Pro, and Notion AI across departments integrating with our systems to reduce repetitive tasks and elevate strategic work. Legal now uses GC AI, an AI product built specifically for lawyers, with other departments piloting their own vertical tools. We have always gone where the audience is. AI is just the next frontier. With less than 15% of our core business's revenue tied to webpage traffic, TIME is positioned for resilience as distribution continues to fragment, supported by 1 million print subscribers, nearly 2 million newsletter subscribers, and more than 60 million social followers. The bottom line: We're building the best version of TIME and see AI as a tool to help us do that. AI enhances distribution, personalization, and access, while our journalism remains created by our staff and contributors, mission-aligned, and deeply trusted. These efforts are the result of close collaboration across departments, and we're committed to equipping every team member to help shape what's ahead. Thank you for your continued dedication as we build the future of TIME together. As I wrote in TIME last month, I feel very privileged to work with you all at this extraordinary moment for our industry. I'm excited about everything we've accomplished and even more energized about what's to come.

10 Things to Say When Someone Won't Get Off Their Phone
Credit - Photo-Illustration by Chloe Dowling for TIME (Source Image: imagenavi/Getty Images) Trying to talk to someone stuck on their phone is such a universal experience, there's a name for it: 'phubbing,' short for 'phone snubbing,' or ignoring someone in favor of a phone. 'Everyone hates it, but everyone has also done it,' says Jean Twenge, a professor of psychology at San Diego State University and author of the upcoming book 10 Rules for Raising Kids in a High-Tech World. 'When someone phubs you, you feel like you're not important—that whatever is on their phone is more important than you.' Phubbing negatively affects mental health, relationship satisfaction, and overall well-being. That's why it's worth speaking up about digital distraction. 'It's challenging and awkward, but we should be doing this,' Twenge says. 'We need to be confronting this situation.' Here's exactly what to say when the person you're trying to talk to won't get off their phone. A couple years ago, Twenge heard about a group of women who pushed their phones into the center of the table when they went out to dinner. The first person to reach for her device had to foot the bill. That's a clever approach, Twenge says, but you don't even need to put a financial spin on it: Instead, propose you all drop your phones somewhere out of sight, like in your bags. Read More: What to Say When You Forget Someone's Name Twenge likes this phrasing because it isn't accusatory: 'It's a subtle way to get across the message of, 'Hey, we all have stuff going on on our phones, but I want to talk to you right now,'' she says. 'It's a very polite way of saying, 'I want us to focus on this conversation.'' This question allows for the possibility that there's an emergency—while implying that, if there's not, it would be better to put the phone down. It might feel slightly confrontational, Twenge says, but it's better than snapping at the other person to get off their device. 'You have to find a way to thread that needle of acknowledging that there might be something important going on,' she says. 'But it is a call out.' This is a way to get someone talking about what's on their phone—and, as a result, to look up from said device. Do people typically share, or simply take it as a reminder to be more present? 'I've seen it go both ways,' Twenge says. 'Sometimes it's just a text exchange with someone else, but every once in a while, it'll be like, 'Look at this really funny video,' or 'Here's this fun picture somebody sent me.' Either way, the idea is to draw them back into the in-person conversation.' This approach is direct but still respectful. It calls attention to the fact that the other person is clearly distracted, without demanding anything from them, says Tessa Stuckey, a therapist and founder of Project LookUp, a nonprofit that helps families build healthier screen habits. 'It gives them autonomy, while also honoring your own needs,' she says. She's found that making her conversation partner aware that she's noticed they're not fully present is often all it takes to prompt a reset. Read More: How to Reconnect With People You Care About Telling someone you miss them comes from a place of vulnerability, not blame—and Stuckey likes that it's almost guaranteed to tug on your friend's heartstrings. 'You're expressing that the phone is creating distance, and that you want connection,' she says. Plus, it invites empathy: Most people don't realize how their screen use is affecting others until it's pointed out gently. The trick, Stuckey adds, is to say it warmly, with sincerity, so it feels like an emotional nudge rather than a guilt trip. Asking someone to put their phone away for such a short amount of time is realistic—it's a very doable break, Stuckey says. You're not asking them to disconnect forever; rather, you're inviting a shared moment. 'People are more likely to unplug when there's a clear time boundary and a good reason,' she says. Plus, it's collaborative, almost like you're proposing a team challenge. Read More: The Worst Way to Reply to a Party Invite Seven years ago, when Seán Killingsworth was in high school, he struggled with excessive screen time so much, he traded his smartphone for a flip phone. It worked—he felt happier and more present—but his peers were still glued to their phones, so he took things a step further and started Reconnect, a group that now hosts phone-free events on college campuses throughout the U.S. Ideally, more opportunities for phone-free socializing would exist. But in lieu of formal options, Killingsworth recommends bringing up the concept to your friends: 'We should try hanging out without our phones sometime.' Talk through why being present with each other matters. Then, the next time you notice your buddies are more focused on Facebook than your face, issue a gentle reminder. If you're at dinner with friends, or are spending quality time with a family member you don't get to see often, consider calling attention to the significance of the moment. You could even follow up by adding: 'I'd hate to look back and feel like we missed out because of our screens,' suggests Dr. James Sherer, a psychiatrist who treats addiction and co-editor of the Technological Addictions textbook for the American Psychiatric Association. 'It can be very powerful,' he says, and lead to meaningful improvements in relationship quality. Read More: How to Say 'I Told You So' in a More Effective Way Focusing on the way someone's phone usage makes you feel can be more effective than "instigatory" comments, Sherer says. You're not going to get very far by barking, 'You're always on TikTok! You don't care about me!' Highlighting your own observations and how someone's behavior makes you feel, however, plants a seed that can encourage them to reevaluate their habits. 'The most important thing is to approach it from a position of being nonjudgmental,' he says. 'You're not there to dog pile on the person.' Stuckey's son was 8 the Christmas morning when he noticed certain family members were paying more attention to their phones than watching him open his presents. He came up with an idea: The family could designate a silly code word they called out every time they wanted to signal it was time to drop the devices and be present in their surroundings. More than five years later, the family still uses their word ('muskrat'). 'What I love about it is my kids can call us out using that word,' Stuckey says. 'We can call them out with that word. They've grown up with it. It makes people check themselves a little bit and say, 'OK, I'll put it down in a moment—I just have to finish this email really quick.''
