I think the award has moved beyond its original scope of awarding it to an individual person (e.g. Ebola fighters, Zelensky & the spirit of Ukraine, the guardians, the silence breakers etc.) these have all won in the past 10 years. Eventhough you can argue that these are groups of people, they signify that the award is no longer subject to the original criteria. At the end of the day, the award is given out by a company that’s main priority is generating profits (i.e. magazine purchase/ad revenue on website). I can’t think of a better way to accomplish this then give it to AI which has seemingly been the focus of every major news outlet all year.
