Attendees will also better understand how algorithm-driven rent and lending setting tools are affecting renters and homebuyers nationwide. Connect with fellow tenants and discuss how we can push for fairer, more representative tools in the housing system. Register for today’s meeting here.
Joining “Tenant Talk Live” this month is Dr. Michael Akinwumi, Chief AI Officer with the National Fair Housing Alliance. Dr. Michael Akinwumi translates values and principles to math and code. He ensures critical and emerging technologies like AI and blockchain enhance innovation, security, trust, and access in housing and financial systems, preventing injustices. As a senior leader, he collaborates with policymakers and industry to strengthen protections and advance innovation. A Rita Allen Civic Science Fellow at Rutgers, he developed an AI policy tool for state-level impact and co-developed an AI Readiness (AIR) Index to help state governments assess their AI maturity. Michael also advises AI companies on developing, deploying, and adopting responsible innovations, driven by his belief that a life lived for others is most meaningful, aiming for lasting societal change through technology.
