A recent study shows that women face a higher risk of job loss due to artificial intelligence (AI) and are 20% less likely than men to use generative AI tools, reducing their chances of working in AI-reliant roles.
According to the Independent, women are twice as likely to hold roles considered “at risk” from automation, meaning rapid technological advances could leave them behind.
The research highlights that female-dominated roles, such as administration, bookkeeping, cashiering, and office staff, are particularly vulnerable to automation-related job losses.
The AI Gender Gap report by consulting firm Credera found that only 22% of the global AI workforce are women.
Supermums, a social enterprise supporting women entering the technology sector, warned that these findings show a real risk of women being left behind as technology progresses.
Heather Black, founder of Supermums, particularly highlighted the impact on mothers, saying they are likely to “pay the price” as AI advances.
“Essentially, women, especially mums, are going to be the ones paying the price in the rise of AI,” she told the Independent.
“AI is here to stay, whether we personally use it or not, so learning how it works and how to make the most of it is key,” she said.
