Delve into the world of AI through the lens of women entrepreneurs. Discover how we can drive AI forward, ensuring it's ethical, unbiased, and truly innovative, all while championing gender equality and injecting heart and soul into technology

Have you heard about AI? It's all the rage these days, and it's changing the game for businesses and communication. Think of AI not as a human brain but as a mega-efficient tool, crunching numbers, and patterns - these are run by algorithms It's not like in the movies where robots take over the world (not yet anyway!), but more like a helpful tool that can recommend the perfect shoes for your outfit, the real-world genius behind those tailored online shopping suggestions or that nifty app sorting out your schedule.

But here's the thing: the tech and AI world has been dominated by men for too long. Women entrepreneurs bring a unique perspective to the table with our empathy, multitasking skills, and intuitive decision-making. We can shape AI to be more ethical and human-centric, which is pretty empowering. Female entrepreneurs like us? We've got this rare concoction of empathy, multitasking wizardry, and an uncanny knack for decision-making that the tech world is thirsty for.

Let's talk about the elephant in the server room that many of us don't realize is there: biases, especially subconscious ones. See, AI is like a sponge – absorbing data it's fed, and if that data is biased, AI mirrors it. If the world's told it a hundred times that "women can't lead," guess what it believes? The challenge? These biases are sneaky. They seep into AI unnoticed, making decisions that can feel like a rewind button. Noticed how most virtual assistants sound suspiciously female and often have passive personalities It's like a subtle whisper from the past saying, "A woman's place is to assist." or the fact that if we type ‘women’ into an image generator it throws back an image of misogynic ‘beauty’ Time to rewrite that narrative, don't you think?

Now, allow me to pull back the tech curtain a tad. Growing up on a council estate in the '80s, my worldview was painted with shades of simplicity. A time when the promise of AI belonged to the sci-fi realm and “Poverty Pie” was a real dinner dish. I was lucky enough to be introduced to the internet and taught coding as a primary school kid in the 80s by my uncle who was a computer engineer. From those roots to navigating the flashy world of AI and tech, I've realized there's room for everyone – from council estate warriors to tech geeks.

Embracing AI doesn't mean we surrender our human essence. It’s not about replacing the heartbeats with cold, clinical algorithms. Instead, it's a golden chance to sprinkle a bit of our spirit into the tech realm. Imagine an AI world infused with our values, aspirations, and yes, even our quirks. Sounds electrifying, right?

So, to all the dazzling minds out there: AI’s future isn't set in binary code. It's fluid, waiting for us to shape it, and with our unique blend of wisdom and wit, it's time we ensure it echoes our dreams, not our biases. Ready to join the revolution?

Thank you for this! I am loving AI but I do see exactly what you mean by the bias.
I have experimented with quite a few questions out of curiosity to see what the outcome would be.
