Women Who Do Data (W2D2)

To build a world where all women can thrive in tech, we must first equip our community with the tools?????and expertise????to do so. Which is why we are launching “She Builds AI” – a program dedicated to making AI accessible. You may ask, why AI? The answer is simple. We have identified that there are significant barriers to women's participation in the AI field. Empowering women with access to AI technology is key to addressing some of the world's most pressing challenges. We hope you join us October 9th and 10th to build community, learn new AI tools and become inspired by our experts.????Click the link below to register and reserve your spot. https://lnkd.in/gTF9AmNT #WomenTechmakers #womenintech #AI #SheBuildsAI
