Automation Workz Foundation, a 501(c)3 nonprofit Research Think Tank, seeks to fuse the power of hustle and technology to forge a path of generational wealth for economically disadvantaged people. According to Bankrate, nearly 39% of US Adults, with a household income less than $50,000 have a side hustle or gig. Approximately, 33% of side hustlers / Gig workers rely upon their side hustle or gig income for regular living expenses emphasizing the need for increased income growth and improved overall economic well-being.
Automation Workz Foundation develops products to empower institutions to assist these side hustlers / Gig workersto embrace emerging tech and invention to foster their income growth.

We are launching the Jetsonnaire Layoff Scholarship Fund – 25 tech skill coaching scholarships to those who have been laid off.
We discovered that Americans with a strong work ethic, earning more than $20,000 in the six months before their layoff, are denied workforce development-funded retraining putting a lot of families into starvation, poverty, and homelessness.
According to Newsweek, layoffs, in 2025, are skyrocketing. WARN (Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notifications) notices have reached their highest level since 2016. In 2023-2025 we offered 2 scholarships. In 2026, we planned to offer 5 scholarships only to receive 4,500 applications for those 5 slots.

HELP ME ASSIST 25 LAID-OFF WORKERS LAUNCH NEW AI CAREERS

Our program offers digital simulations, mentorship, coaching, and certification preparation to help individuals secure high-paying jobs in AI, cybersecurity, and more. We’ve already seen incredible success stories like Jimmie Porter, who landed a $96,000 job offer, and Donovan Dorsey, who went from homelessness to a $14,560 raise.
Your donation can change lives. Whether it’s $50 or $10,000, every contribution helps someone become future-ready in this AI-driven world. Let’s work together to create 25 new Jetsonnaires who can thrive in the age of automation.

HUSTLE & TECHknow – Humanoid Experience in the ‘Hood a groundbreaking social experiment: a lifelike AI humanoid robot embarks on a cross-country journey through bustling cities and quiet towns, sparking raw, unscripted encounters with everyday people. What begins as a simple test of human-robot interaction quickly unearths deeper truths about trust, fear, empathy, and the future of coexistence. Along the way, tech experts, philosophers, and skeptics weigh in as the robot navigates streets, diners, and backroads, blurring the line between machine and companion. This thought-provoking documentary challenges our assumptions about humanoid artificial intelligence and reveals that the way we imagine the future may be very different from how we actually live it.

HUSTLE & TECHknow – Humanoid Experience in the ‘Hood is an independent documentary that explores how real people react to AI humanoid robots in everyday life. Taking a humanoid robot on a journey across urban centers and small-town America, the film will capture genuine moments of curiosity, fear, humor, and connection between humans and machines. Through interviews with experts, candid encounters on the road and human vs humanoid competitions, the documentary reveals surprising truths about our expectations of technology — and how reality often defies prediction.

Once residents are shocked out of their paralysis by the Humanoid Experience in the ‘Hood, we will build HUSTLE & TECHknow (H&T) – an Advanced Computing R&D lab within a poverty-stricken community. Excerpted from The Invisible Talent Market, “In the article, Invention Is the Mother of Economic Growth: Nathan Myhrvold former Chief Technology Officer at Microsoft and co-founder of Intellectual Ventures states, “there is a magical engine for economic growth. It is invention — the process by which the human mind creates new ideas with practical consequences. Invention and its weaker cousin, innovation, are ultimately the source of all wealth and luxuries.”

Residents, in poverty stricken communities, are late adopters to technology as it normally takes 5-20 years for disruptive technology to reach them, too late for them to acquire skills for the high-demand jobs disruptive technology creates. Residents are adept at using IoT devices and can be trained to research, develop, and adopt edge computing and data analysis. This training could empower them to serve manufacturers as business owners or employees, significantly boosting economic prosperity within their communities. Additionally, manufacturers will have access to new inventions that will reduce the cost of edge computing, production to improve battery, semiconductor, artificial intelligence, virtual reality and robotic technology.
