Are you a leader trying to figure out how to evaluate an AI system? Are you in business, journalism, civil society, or the tech industry? I'm excited to share the publication of the book I wish I had in my first job testing AI seventeen years ago: "Auditing AI." mitpress.mit.edu/978026205172...

Ever notice how the inner voice that says, "We are powerless. This will never work." gets louder when you feel alone? That's because loneliness and isolation amplify despair. Community, partnership, and action are the antidote. Hope is a group project.

Martin Luther King, Jr. dedicated his life to advocating tirelessly for the justice and equality of Black Americans and resisting elected leaders’ deliberate abuse and neglect of our communities. He was relentlessly targeted by our government for his views and pursuit of equality.

Black and white image of Martin Luther King Jr with a quote of his on top of it. The quote reads "We are now faced with the fact that tomorrow is today. We are confronted with the fierce urgency of now. In this unfolding conundrum of life and history, there is such a thing as being too late. This is no time for apathy or complacency. This is a time for vigorous and positive action.”"
