The name “LUDIA” is a remix of the acronyms AI and UDL. Ludia means “play” in Greek. LUDIA (they/them) is non-binary; reimagining, not reinforcing, gender assumptions in the “AI helper” context. 

LUDIA was created by Beth Stark, UDL Expert and Inclusionary Practices Strategist for International Schools, and Jérémie Rostan, High School Curriculum and Instruction Coordinator at International School of Panama, and author of the E-Book, “AI-Powered UDL Strategies”.
