"Women use generative artificial intelligence tools less than men do. The World Economic Forum recently published an article on the subject. It reported that 59 per cent of male workers aged between 18 and 65 use generative artificial intelligence at least once a week, compared with 51 per cent of women. Among young people aged 18 to 25, the percentage of men using AI is 71 per cent, compared with 59 per cent of women. It’s a difference of 12 percentage points, which is considerable. In this area, as in so many others, you can see the glass as half empty or half full, depending on how optimistic you are".

But let’s change perspective now. If we identify the opportunities linked to artificial intelligence in tomorrow’s world of work, we can see the glass as half full. (...) it’s women’s jobs that will be most affected by generative AI over the next few years. These fields will offer the best career opportunities for women if we find a way to take our place in them.
For those who were asking why are we doing what we do at WLAIM... Here is part of your answer 😉.
