AI Needs Women: Why Your Voice Matters to Shape the Present and the Future

I vividly remember the day after Christmas 2022. Not because I was relaxing, but because I was at my laptop, updating my university courses and diving headfirst into AI tools for my business and podcast. ChatGPT had just launched, and I knew instantly: this was different. This wasn’t just another tech trend; this was a transformation.

In this episode, I share the talk I recently delivered at the ElleX Summit, where I wove together history, technology, and the urgent need for women’s voices in AI.

From Ada Lovelace and the women of NASA to Eleanor Roosevelt and the Brontë sisters, women have always shown up when new technologies emerged that gave them a voice and a platform.

And now, it’s our moment again.

You’ll hear:

Why AI isn’t just a tool - it’s a force shaping how we work, teach, govern, and live
Shocking examples of gender bias baked into AI systems
Why your perspective, leadership, and storytelling are essential in this new era
How I’m using AI to save time on the computer, so I can do more of the work that makes me feel human

AI can either reinforce the past or help us create a more inclusive future. It’s up to us to choose. Let’s make sure future generations find plenty of women in the history books of this AI era.
