What if AI agents could manage your family calendar, plan your next trip, help with homework, and keep your kids safe online? In this episode of AI-Empowered Mom, host Sarah Dooley sits down with Microsoft’s Rajamma Krishnamurthy, a leader in agentic AI and NYU adjunct professor, to explore how these “intelligent interns” could transform family life. Rajamma breaks down what autonomous and semi-autonomous AI agents are and shares real examples of how they could reduce the mental load at home.

The conversation also covers practical ways to keep your family’s data private and secure, the role of bias in AI, and why AI governance at home is never a one-time conversation. Rajamma even shares one of the most unexpected AI use cases she has seen, involving cows, and reflects on the opportunities and risks of bringing this technology into family life.
