In this episode of AI for Equity, Jenny and Leah are joined by Dr. Mona Ashok, an academic and researcher who’s all about making sure AI works for people, not against them. Together, they dive into the roots of AI (spoiler: it’s been around since the 1950s!), the ethical questions we really need to be asking, and why diverse voices in AI governance aren’t just a nice-to-have—they’re essential.
Mona shares her insights on how AI can actually support better decision-making and improve the workplace—but only if it’s done right. That means including underrepresented voices, staying aware of bias, and building a future where AI enhances, not replaces, human judgment.
If you’re curious about how AI can be ethical and inclusive, or you want to know what responsible AI adoption looks like in real workplaces, this one’s not to be missed.
