Artificial intelligence – whether classical, generative, agentic, and wherever the newest models take us next – has become the dominant force behind improving government technology, network security, mission success, and citizen service delivery.

And driving that wave forward is the latest generation of AI practitioners, developers, and visionary thinkers who are leading the way in tapping into the technology's potential to benefit us all.

That's why MeriTalk is delighted to honor the 2025 class of AI Honors Award Winners – the 30 women and men working across government and industry right now to bring AI to bear in shaping the ongoing revolution in government IT service.
