About the Event
AI is no longer on the horizon for evaluation. It's already here — and this 60-minute session at gLOCAL Evaluation Week 2026 will show exactly what that looks like in practice. From NLP coding thousands of transcripts in days, to predictive ML flagging, to WhatsApp chatbots reaching the most remote communities — the cost, time, and distance barriers that once defined what evaluation could do are falling away. This session draws on four real-world documented approaches and translates those cross-sector lessons into something actionable: one application to explore, one safeguard to commit to, and a clear framework for shaping AI's role in evaluation before others shape it for you. If you work in evaluation — as a commissioner, practitioner, policymaker, or alongside affected communities — this one's for you.
