This research presents a compelling exploration at the juncture of feminism and Artificial Intelligence, seeking to
discern pathways for empowering women through technological advancements and whether Hybrid Human AI helps reclaim
womanhood. It employs feminist theory to contextualise the discourse within today’s socio-political landscape. The
research methodology integrates co-design and participatory techniques, fostering a playful environment where humour and
wit catalyse participants to confront and address personal experiences. By leveraging satire, the study endeavours to
create safe spaces for women to collaborate with AI constructively and responsibly, utilising their experiences as case
studies. The result highlights the potential of AI to assist women with social awareness, addressing their needs and
reclaiming agency over their everyday lives. The insights indicate that we must rethink cyberfeminism in the light of
equitable and inclusive AI technologies. When engaging with ethical considerations surrounding AI design, this paper
emphasises transparency and women’s autonomy in decision-making. Through irony and speculative methodologies, the
outcome points towards experimenting with identity and claiming agency by designing AI assistance through daily life
decisions. While the contemporary discourse around AI focuses mainly on labour, privacy and workforce disruption, this
research argues that we can use AI to envision empowering futures for women.
