Who gets to shape AI, and who does it serve?

In this episode of the AI-Empowered Mom Podcast, host Sarah Dooley is joined by Meme Styles, data activist, mom of four, and founder of MEASURE, a nonprofit using data as a tool for justice. Meme is also an MIT Solver, Social Science Research Council Justice Fellow, and Chair of the HBCU AI Convention.

Together, Sarah and Meme discuss what it means to “interrogate AI,” how communities can hold technology accountable, and why representation and equity must be built into every system from the start. Meme shares the frameworks her team is using to examine bias, measure impact, and ensure that AI benefits, not harms, the people it touches.
