Community Reflections: Music, Momentum & Meaningful Innovation

Liberty sparked the conversation with three reflective prompts:

• 🎶 If your 2025 had a theme song, what would it be?

• 📈 Where is AI creating new lanes for women—not just tools?

• 📚 What’s a book, podcast, or course on AI you’d recommend?

The community responded by sharing personal growth, professional pivots, and cultural insights. WOMEN x AI Community Theme Songs of 2025 Tune into the theme songs shared by our WOMEN x AI Community.

Here are some of the background on the theme songs shared. Lele up was the most popular pick: “‘Level Up’ by Ciara, because this year has stretched me more than I could imagine—and we’re just halfway.” — N. Liberty White "My 2025 theme song is "Level Up" by Ciara because that's the energy AI has

unlocked for so many of us women who are quietly building, testing, and

empowering others." — Ankita Sayal

Multiple members emphasized how AI is creating new lanes for women—especially in healthcare, entrepreneurship, and education.

There was specific excitement around women’s health innovation, rural education, and tools that reduce barriers to launching or scaling ideas.

🛠️ Practical AI Use Cases

Members shared favorite tools and platforms—from GenAI newsletters and voice apps to custom GPTs—demonstrating how AI is already being used for SEO, image generation, automation, and task delegation.

As Liberty said:

“Whether you’re building systems or breaking them, this is your space to reflect, connect, and imagine what’s possible.”
