Byte Size Videocast - "A Matter of Choice"
Join Katarina Kuai and Kirit Patel from the UN Development Coordination Office as they sit down with HDRO Director Pedro Conceição to explore the #HDR2025, A matter of choice: People and possibilities in the age of AI.

🎯 Highlights:
• #BeyondGDP: What human development really measures
• AI & Reconfiguration: Why substitution isn’t the story
• Agency in the Age of Algorithms: Who really drives AI
• Shaping Technology: How the UN can move from taker to shaper
