In this first episode of our second season, we explore a critical question: how do we build AI systems that are not only compliant, but genuinely feminist?

As harms like deepfakes increasingly target women and vulnerable communities, we ask what kinds of design choices, policy frameworks, and community-led interventions are actually making a difference. What does digital safety look like in practice across different cultural and political contexts? And how can we move beyond reactive regulation toward approaches grounded in care, participation, and lived experience?

We also explore the role of the Global South in shaping alternative futures for AI governance—ones that are more inclusive, contextual, and community-driven.

At the Inclusive AI Lab, we don’t only focus on safety and harm reduction, but on expanding freedoms, reclaiming digital spaces, and imagining more joyful, pleasure-oriented digital futures.

In this episode, we spoke with:

Kirthi Jayakumar, founder of the Gender Security Project and PhD in Feminist Approaches to Digital Infrastructure and Emerging Technologies at Utrecht University

Weijie Huang, Researcher on Google’s Gender AI Safety Protocols and a PhD candidate at Utrecht University.
