Summer and AI: Top ten cartoons of the week

While it's never really quiet with Trump in office, the summer does provide some relief from the relentless pace of news.

Without politics in the forefront, two topics dominated our list of the most-reprinted cartoons this week – the continued expansion of AI and the overwhelming heat.

I enjoyed John Darkow's popular cartoon about AI, which featured classic robots from Lost in Space and The Twilight Zone. John's funny cartoon about the scorching temperatures also topped our list, focused on a man who asked about the heat one too many times.

But our most-reprinted cartoon of the week by far, drawn by Dave Granlund, focused on the increasing cost of health care in the U.S. Can't we get AI to fix that?

Here are our top ten most reprinted cartoons of the week:
