What we’ve learned from the women behind the AI revolution
The AI boom, whether you like it or consider it a little more hype than substance, is here to stay. That means a lot of companies raising big dollars, regulatory concerns, academic work, and a healthy dose of corporate jockeying. For startups, this means a huge opportunity to bring new technology to industries that could use a little polish.
But if you read the news, you can see that the most cited and discussed players in AI today are men. So, TechCrunch’s Dominic-Madorie Davis and Kyle Wiggers decided to go out and talk to women working in AI to learn more about their work, how they got into the world of artificial intelligence, and much more. . This series has been in the works for some time, so it was the perfect time to bring the pair of them on the Equity Podcast to chat about the project.
So far they’ve interviewed people like Irene Soliman, head of global policy at Hugging Face, Sarah Kreps, professor of government at Cornell, and Heidi Khalaf, director of security engineering at Trail of Bits.
