About us
AI4ALL is a national nonprofit that is transforming the pipeline of AI practitioners and creating a more inclusive, human-centered discipline. We empower students to be AI Changemakers by cultivating an environment where they develop skills in critical thinking and relationship-building, and expertise in responsible AI. To accomplish this, we seek students from communities that have been excluded in the AI space. Then we help them build identity in the field, and tap into their own agency and initiative as they build technical and leadership skills. While all are welcome to apply, AI4ALL prioritizes students whose race, gender, or ethnicity has been historically excluded from AI: Black, Hispanic and Latinx, and Indigenous folks; and women and non-binary folks. Our programs run in partnership with colleges and universities around North America. We are establishing the next generation of AI Changemakers that humanity needs by equipping diverse, emerging talent with the responsible AI skills and social capital needed for collective success. AI4ALL has received funding from Melinda Gates/Pivotal Ventures, Prudential Financial, Accenture, General Motors, and SoftBank among others and has been featured in the New York Times, TIME, CNN, The Washington Post, USA Today, and The Atlantic.

What does it mean to truly excel in AI? In our AI4ALL Spring Symposium, Julia Robinson from Atlassian shared enriching advice on learning how to thrive in ambiguity, cultivating a growth mindset, and figuring out how to collaborate cross functionally. Julia’s powerful message underscored that building a sustainable and ethical AI ecosystem is a collective endeavor, requiring dedication and responsibility from each one of us. "Responsible tech is everyone’s job. It’s not just one team, one expert, or one company, or any one thing that’s going to fix it. It really has to be everyone."
