    ITU Tech Monthly | How Do You Turn an Ai Pilot Project Into Real Impact?
    13 Oct 2026
    What does it take to ensure artificial intelligence works for everyone?

    In this episode of ITU Tech Monthly, Neil Sahota, CEO of ACSI Labs and United Nations AI Advisor, talks about the evolution from Ai for people, to Ai with people, and ultimately Ai by people. The conversation looks at why meaningful Ai impact depends not only on innovative solutions, but on empowering people and communities to create solutions of their own.

    Discover how a more inclusive approach to Ai can help broaden participation, strengthen agency, and turn technology into a tool for positive impact.
