We love everything to do with digital, science & technology. We want more people to get into the sector, and to thrive
About us
We are a non for profit community that supports women and underrepresented groups to succeed in Creative, Technology & Science careers. We run a mentoring scheme and host events with inspirational role models working across all levels of science/digital/tech (from fashion bloggers to computer scientists/inventors to website entrepreneurs) to show just how varied and exciting the careers paths are, and to break the stigma that tech isn’t creative.

They spend vast sums on the first two – sometimes a million dollars per engineer, and up to a billion dollars per model. But they expect to take the third – training data – for free..." A thought provoking article in The Guardian explores the threat AI poses to ‘creatives’ across industries. While AI undoubtedly offers countless possibilities, the use of writers’ work to train these systems breaches copyright and represents a real threat to livelihoods. https://lnkd.in/d_nsyVV6
Thom Yorke and Julianne Moore join thousands of creatives in AI warning
