In this episode, I sat down with Muhammad Atif Sheikh, Executive Director of STEP (Special Talent Exchange Program), to discuss the challenges and opportunities for persons with disabilities, and how AI and technology are shaping the future of inclusion.

We discussed:
The difference between disability & accessibility
How AI can enable (or threaten) inclusion
Cultural & societal mindsets about disability
STEP’s inspiring work to create an inclusive, equitable environment
Why disability rights are human rights

Atif shared insights on what it takes to build a more just, accessible, and inclusive society, as well as what each of us can do to contribute to this effort.
