Peggy talks about why women are adopting AI (artificial intelligence) tools at a lower rate than men on average. She says when more people understand and use AI effectively, everyone benefits.

She also discusses:

· Why framing women as behind is too simplistic because some skepticism around AI is healthy.

· Five major concerns that could come as a result if this gap persists.

· What needs to happen next to ensure consistent adoption across companies.

Peggy Smedley and Bryan Reimer, research scientist, MIT Center for Transportation and Logistics, talk about some of the tough AI (artificial intelligence) questions: Who pays for its impact? How will we tax it? Who is liable when it fails? Who gets hit hardest in the workforce? What happens when innovation outruns governance? How do we make AI really useful? He says we forget that AI today may be as much of a transformation in society as electricity was many years ago.

They also discuss:

· What public officials need to be debating—and if taxes need to shift.

· What obligations AI developers must ensure against systemic failure or success.

· How AI is changing the workforce and how workers can prepare for it.

Peggy Smedley and Boris Martin, Engineers Without Borders USA, talk about healthcare workers that are fighting to save lives without the basics like clean water, safe sanitation, and dependable energy. He says the question of fair, equitable access to infrastructure is seldom in the news and people don't pay much attention to it, but health often is.

They also discuss:

· Engineering solutions and community partnerships that can help.

· Stories from around the world.

· How innovation can help solve this global problem.
