Who gets to shape AI—and what knowledge are we missing when people cannot participate? Join Susanna Raj (https://www.linkedin.com/in/susanna-raj/) and Dr. Sunny Zhang (https://www.linkedin.com/in/drsunnyz/) for a 30-minute Leapcast Live conversation about building AI that reflects more of the people, languages, and communities it serves. As Founder of AI4Nomads, Co-founder of Global South in AI, and USA Ambassador for Women in AI, Susanna brings perspectives from research, entrepreneurship, and community leadership. We’ll explore how access to learning, mentorship, research, and meaningful work can open pathways into AI. We’ll also discuss how communities can contribute their knowledge and help influence the technologies affecting their lives. We’ll explore: - What inclusive AI means in everyday product and community decisions. - Why language, culture, and lived experience matter when developing AI. - How women and people from varied professional backgrounds can find pathways to contribute. - What responsible participation looks like in data collection and AI development. - How community leaders can connect people with learning, collaborators, and opportunities.
