She has designed new conversational AI artworks for Tate Modern and ARS Electronica, and continues to challenge the status quo with her collaborator and SWCTN Fellow Coral Manton. Together, they launched ‘Women Reclaiming AI’, a feminist AI voice assistant, programmed through workshops by a growing community of self-identifying women.
