According to the World Economic Forum, 59% of 18-65 year old male workers use Gen AI at least once a week, which is more than women (51%). For those aged 18 to 25, 71% of men use AI, compared to 59% of women. This hints at a notable gap in AI adoption between genders, suggesting that women may be less inclined or have fewer opportunities to engage with these emerging technologies. This disparity could place women at a disadvantage, particularly as GenAI is expected to significantly impact women's jobs. However, by proactively familiarising themselves with AI, women can even position themselves as leaders in shaping the future of these technologies. Women already bring their own strengths to the workplace, and if they become even more involved with AI, they can help ensure the inclusivity of these technologies. Their involvement can lead to better detection and mitigation of biases within algorithms, addressing the discrimination that is often amplified by AI. #womenandAI #womenintheworkplace #GenAI
Great advice!
Devils advocate -maybe women are knowledgeable enough without needing to rely on ChatGPT etc for answers? 😀
Some great insights here, Simon - It's clear that collective action is needed to bridge the gender gap in AI. Happy Thursday.
