Hi Reader,
We are a group of doers. As Michelle Muncy-Silva, our Executive Director of the She Leads AI Academy, likes to say: "We’re boots on ground."
The case studies we’re sharing today are just a few examples of how the members of our community show up as empathetic leaders at just the right time.
What's inside:
- A no-code symptom-validation app that gives ER patients an objective urgency score so they stop getting sent home with a saline drip and a dismissal.
- How one member rewrote job descriptions across a global company using AI — and female applicants increased by 25%.
- A $250,000 grant secured by synthesizing 72 hours of complex interviews. The nonprofit couldn't have competed for it otherwise.

🎙️ AI Readiness Project
From Principles to Practice: Daisy Thomas on the Politics of AI Readiness
In this episode of The AI Readiness Project, Anne Murphy and Kyle Shannon talk with Daisy Thomas, Director of Advocacy & Policy Development at AI Salon, about what it looks like when AI governance leaves the group chat and shows up in real life. Daisy breaks down why policy can’t be an afterthought when AI is already embedded in schools, agriculture, privacy decisions, and everyday services—and why “we’ll fix it later” is a fantasy with bad odds.
They dig into the messy reality of a 50-state patchwork, what legislators are focusing on right now (especially education and data privacy), and how everyday people can actually get heard—without needing to become a wonk or move to Washington. If you want a grounded take on the politics of AI readiness (with zero sci-fi drama), this one’s for you.
