Invitation: AI in Everyday Life: Friend or Enemy? Can We Coexist and Thrive?
Join me next week for a thought-provoking panel discussion featuring brilliant women leaders exploring how artificial intelligence is reshaping our world and how we can navigate this transformation ethically and responsibly.
The AI revolution is no longer confined to research labs or science fiction. It's embedded in our daily lives, influencing everything from how we work to how we communicate and make decisions. As this technology becomes increasingly sophisticated and frequent in our daily lives, we face critical questions about its role in society and our future relationship with these intelligent systems.
Amplifying Women's Voices in Tech
On May 20, 2025, I'll have the honour of hosting an insightful panel discussion as part of the WomenTech Network's ongoing efforts to spotlight female excellence in technology. This virtual event will bring together accomplished women leaders who have navigated the complex tech landscape and emerged as powerful voices for change and have an audience of more than 150,000 women worldwide.
Exploring AI's Impact Through Women's Perspectives
Our discussion will explore the profound impact of AI on society, examining both the exciting possibilities and potential pitfalls. We'll move beyond technical jargon to explore meaningful questions about how humans and AI can coexist in ways that enhance rather than diminish our collective potential.
Meet Our Panellists
Each of our speakers brings unique expertise and insights to this crucial conversation about AI:
Ina Toncheva - AI Content Strategist helping B2B marketing teams in tech use AI strategically to create, scale, and repurpose content that stays on-brand and customer-centric. Ina specialises in teaching teams how to build practical, repeatable AI workflows that give them structure, speed, and confidence in their content process.
"AI has the incredible potential to expand our creativity and the very real risk of eroding independent thinking, depending on how we choose to use it. We're seeing company-wide mandates from CEOs urging teams to adopt AI immediately, with usage tied to performance evaluations. These are big shifts, and they raise critical questions about how we work with AI, make decisions and lead. I'm honoured to speak at the Women in Tech Global Conference, where conversations like these can happen at scale."
Ina Toncheva - AI for Content Marketing
Pooja Jain - Pooja Jain is an AI advisor and trainer who supports senior leaders and business owners in adapting to environments where human-AI collaboration is the new normal. Through her company PowerUp AI, she works closely with leadership teams to embed AI into business processes, driving real-world results in marketing, sales, and operations.
"AI is not here to replace leadership, creativity, or human intuition, it is here to challenge us to elevate them. The businesses that will lead tomorrow are those where leaders stop viewing AI as a tool and start seeing it as a collaborator. When humans bring empathy, strategy, and vision, and AI brings scale, speed, and precision, that's where real transformation begins. The future belongs to those who master this balance. "
Carnellia Ajasin - AI Advisor and CEO, reimagining AI not just as a technical tool, but as a force for ethical infrastructure, sustainable innovation, and intergenerational equity. Her work in regenerative intelligence, challenges extractive capital models and speed at all costs tech culture by centering equity, circular innovation pipelines and conscious systems design.

My work in regenerative intelligence challenges extractive systems by prioritising equity and conscious design.
