News Summary:

SEOUL, South Korea, Aug. 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — LG Electronics (LG) is presenting the ultimate AI TV experience with its 2026 lineup of AI-powered TVs at IFA 2026, in Berlin, Germany, from September 4–8. LG AI TVs are more than just screens; they are personalized entertainment platforms that recognize individual users, understand context, and proactively recommend apps, shows, settings, and more.

Award-winning α11 AI Processor Gen3 Elevates Picture and Sound

The 2026 LG AI TV lineup is centered on the α11 AI Processor Gen3, LG’s most powerful AI TV engine, which drives its refined picture-quality-enhancing technologies. First applied to this year’s LG OLED evo series, the evolved processor now brings its advanced picture quality enhancements to LG’s ultra-large Micro RGB evo TVs.

The α11 AI Processor Gen3 features faster, more precise video processing with a 5.6-fold improvement* in NPU performance and enhanced CPU and GPU capabilities. It also enables AI Dual 4K Upscaling, combining two AI methods to transform lower-resolution content into sharper, clearer 4K quality, while elevating audio to cinematic Virtual 11.1.2 channels with AI Sound Pro.

Earning accolades for its superior picture quality, Tom’s Guide honored the α11 AI Processor at its AI Awards 2026, noting the award recognizes “the best AI products that solve practical problems rather than just focusing on mere hype.” Praising its ability to reduce color banding, Tom’s Guide stated, “While most of the other TVs we compared it to showed the red light as stripes, the LG OLED TV rendered the scene naturally.”

Enhancing Daily Life Through Personalized AI

Beyond optimized picture quality, LG’s AI TVs deliver an expanded viewing experience through personalized AI features.

LG’s 2026 lineup incorporates a number of user-centric AI features designed to make everyday viewing more convenient and customized:

Voice ID: Recognizes the user’s voice and switches to their personal profile, which provides tailored content recommendations based on viewing history and preferences. When a user asks, “Do you have any movies you can recommend?” Voice ID responds with personalized suggestions matched to their taste in films.AI Chatbot: Comprehends users’ plain-language descriptions of viewing-related issues and presents appropriate solutions. When a user says, “The screen is too dark,” AI Chatbot identifies the exact setting issue, then walks the user through the fix.AI Concierge: Analyzes viewing history and habits to proactively suggest content, search terms and relevant features on webOS 26. Accessible by pressing the AI button on the remote, this feature displays information in a convenient card format so that users don’t have to navigate away from what they are watching.

LG Shield: Robust Security with Multi-Layered Protection

Every experience on LG AI TV is protected by LG Shield, LG’s proprietary, integrated security system for webOS. To safeguard users’ information and privacy, LG Shield employs seven core security technologies: secure algorithms, secure data storage, secure data transmission, user authentication, software integrity assurance, secure update and security event detection.

This multi-layered defense is designed to protect user data and TV systems from threats such as data leakage, unauthorized access and malicious tampering.

A CES 2026 Innovation Awards honoree in the Cybersecurity category, LG Shield allows users to enjoy the personalized services available on LG AI TVs with greater peace of mind. In addition, LG’s AI TVs come with up to five years of complimentary webOS upgrades, helping deliver an evolving user experience with access to new and improved features released post-purchase.

Experience LG AI TVs at IFA 2026

“We are committed to bringing the next generation of AI-driven home entertainment to everyone, ensuring that our entire TV lineup delivers a truly AI TV experience,” said Park Hyoung-sei, president of the LG Media Entertainment Solution Company. “From picture quality to security to highly personalized user experiences, every AI-driven feature is designed to enrich and expand what you can do on LG TV – and IFA 2026 is where people can see these innovations in action.”

Visitors to LG’s booth in Hall 18 at Messe Berlin, can enjoy the LG AI TV experience in person throughout IFA 2026.

AI Opportunity Fund Expands AI Skills Training Across Asia Pacific with 28 Phase Three Local Implementing Partners

Published

on

By

AVPN is also launching the AI Opportunity Learning Platform, giving learners access to localised AI training and recommended learning pathways in 16 languages

SINGAPORE, Nov. 11, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — AVPN, Asia’s largest platform for social impact, today announced the 28 organisations selected as local implementing partners joining phase three of the AI Opportunity Fund: Asia-Pacific, supported by Google.org and the Asian Development Bank (ADB). The new cohort expands the Fund’s AI skills training into classrooms and workplaces across 19 markets, including through organisations participating in AI Ready ASEAN led by ASEAN Foundation.

Most of the new local implementing partners will work directly with K-12 teachers, university students and faculty, extending the Fund beyond today’s workforce to the educators shaping the next generation of workers. By building AI fluency among teachers and faculty, phase three is designed to carry that capability through successive cohorts of students. Other local implementing partners will reach healthcare workers, agricultural and service-sector workers, as well as employees of micro, small and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs).

More information on the phase three organisations are here. Among the organisations receiving funding are:

Pratham Education Foundation (India) – works across schools and communities to improve education and prepare children and young people for a changing world. Pratham will train teachers to use AI critically in the classroom, adapting and localising content including Experience AI and Google for Education for its learners, alongside practical skills such as understanding when not to rely on AI tools.JA Korea (South Korea) – has trained 11,000 teachers over six years, and will pair Google’s AI training with formal certification for public school educators, with dedicated outreach to rural teachers. Classroom results will also feed into policy convenings with ministry officials, aiming to institutionalise national K-12 AI education policy, with dedicated outreach to give rural teachers equal access. AI Edu Corp (Vietnam) – a pioneer in digital skills training in Vietnam, AI Edu Corp has trained nearly 150,000 educators, students and workers since 2019. It has existing partnerships with Vietnam’s Ministry of Education and Training and will support efforts to embed AI literacy into teacher standards nationwide.

“AI tools are already entering classrooms and workplaces across Asia-Pacific. The challenge now is making sure people have the skills to use them well, and the judgement to know when not to be overly reliant on them. Phase Three takes that work further into the places where people learn and work, from schools and universities to healthcare, agriculture and small businesses,” said Naina Subberwal Batra, CEO at AVPN.

“Local organisations are central to making that happen. They understand the languages, communities and institutions they serve, and can adapt training in ways that a regional programme alone cannot. By also equipping educators, we have an opportunity for that knowledge to carry forward through successive generations of students,” she added.

A Single Point of Access to AI Learning

Today, AVPN is also launching the AI Opportunity Learning Platform, AVPN’s gateway to AI training programmes across Asia-Pacific. The platform connects learners with AI learning opportunities and resources designed and delivered by trusted local partners. Each programme is tailored to its target learners, kept up to date, and delivered in local languages, helping educators, students, workers, and MSMEs apply AI confidently and responsibly in their own fields.

Available in 16 languages, the platform will recommend a learning pathway based on a short assessment. Certification available upon completion of training. A Gemini-powered assistant will help users navigate the platform, answer questions about it and provide guided learning.

For Phase 3, AVPN has brought on a new strategic partner, the Raspberry Pi Foundation. The Foundation will work with local implementing partners to localise Experience AI content for their markets and languages, while providing training and guidance on using the content. Another new strategic partner is the Ayala Foundation, who will provide access to Google AI learning resources for educators and students in the Philippines. Additionally, Ayala Foundation will support the AI Opportunity Fund’s local implementing partners in the Philippines to access more opportunities for organisational growth.

“Access to AI skills depends on whether people can find training that is relevant to them, in a language and setting that works for them. The 28 organisations joining Phase Three bring that local knowledge, whether they are working with teachers, students, healthcare workers or small businesses,” said Marija Ralic, Head of Google.org APAC.

“The AI Opportunity Learning Platform extends that approach. By bringing training and local partners together in one place and making it available in 16 languages, we can make it easier for learners across Asia-Pacific to find relevant training and connect with organisations in their market.”

Launched in 2024 with a USD 15 million commitment, the Fund received a further USD 10 million in Phase Two in May 2025 and another USD 10 million in Phase Three in May 2026, bringing Google.org’s total commitment to USD 35 million.

To date, the Fund has trained more than 850,000 workers and 63,000 small businesses across Asia-Pacific, working through almost 60 local implementing partner organisations and delivering programmes in more than 30 local languages.
