We applaud U.S. Trade Rep. Katherine Tai's response to Rep. Greg Murphy's sexist comment, but it's a shame that women continue to face bias around communication. We need to end the sexist double standards and criticisms! 👏

The narrative CA — now the world’s 4th largest economy — is imploding has never been true.
They said everyone here was moving to FL. Turns out for every 6 Californians moving to FL, 5 Floridians moved to CA.

Consumers want a female-sounding #VoiceAssistant (Gill Martin, 2010; Nicole Hennig, 2018).
From a business perspective, companies have more range of expression to optimize #Ai & user engagement using a female voice than a male voice given how we socialize males.

Over 1M people proposed to #Alexa in 2017… a low point for humanity.

A reminder that the jurors heard this audio of Johnny Depp physically and verbally abusing Amber Heard but still decided that she wasn't abused. This trial was far from fair or just. #IStandWithAmberHeard
