Breaking Barriers: AI, Women in Video, and the Future of Content Creation

We're kicking off three episodes to celebrate International Women's Day, and in this edition we welcome Leila Woodington, Chief Marketing Officer at VEED, to discuss the intersection of AI, video content creation, and gender equity in technology. With VEED’s mission to make video accessible for everyone, Leila shares insights into the challenges women face in front of the camera, the pay gap in influencer marketing, and why AI adoption among women is lagging behind.

She also highlights VEED’s use of AI-powered tools to simplify video creation, giving users—from solo content creators to enterprises—more control over their brand and storytelling. As AI-generated content reshapes the industry, Leila explains why businesses must embrace AI as a tool rather than a threat and why getting more women involved in AI development is critical for the future.
