AI & You

Our Mission

AIandYou addresses the need for education and awareness about artificial intelligence in simple terms. We promote AI Literacy, a basic understanding of artificial intelligence and its impact on daily life. We provide tools and resources to educate marginalized communities about the benefits, risks, and opportunities with artificial intelligence (AI). We prepare communities and policy leaders for the changes impacting their local economic growth and stability in jobs, education, small business, healthcare, and more.

AIandYou, a 501c-3 nonprofit, was launched in 2019 when Susan Gonzales, a former Facebook exec, identified the chasm between the AI industry and marginalized communities. Susan launched the organization to address the alarmingly low awareness of AI in these communities. AIandYou aims to help people understand AI in easy-to-understand language through free online content, community outreach, and educational events with policymakers. Gonzales serves on the National AI Advisory Committee advising the Biden Administration on artificial intelligence, the NIST AI Safety Consortium, the Boards of EqualAI, and the Eva Longoria Foundation. Gonzales co-authored Enhancing AI Literacy for the United States NAIAC recommendation to the White House 2023.
