It's been ages since I've sat down and read a magazine. But there are times when I don't have the motivation to read a book and I just want a quick, well-written article to enjoy.

To give an example of the sort of content, someone shared this interesting article on Lemmy the other day about the ways in which far right tech CEOs mimic AIs being trained on their own data. It was a really fascinating idea!

I'm not too fussy about the content - science, technology, gaming, nature, opinion pieces, politics (but not too heavy).

For the longest time I used to get the National Geographic, which always had good content. But I feel a bit burnt out with those. Something along these lines on another topic would be perfect.

Can anyone recommend any particular magazines?

suggestions because i think they're well written, no political inclination intended - always read a broad range of opinions

The Economist (I find the whole thing a bit too much, too niche, but for core articles it's very well written and sourced)
Readers Digest - fantastic variety of short human-based stories
National Geographic - same
Spectator - for a certain point of view
Guardian Weekly - for a certain point of view
