AI Will Destroy More Female Jobs Than Male, Study Finds

“Any form of technological transition would have a strongly gendered effect, with a badly managed process disproportionately harming women,” reads the report.

About four percent of global female employment is subject to potential automation through generative AI technologies, compared to only 1.4 percent of male employment.

Tell that to restaurant waitresses. Airline stewardesses. Store clerks. Babysitters. Nurses. Midwives. No, don’t fret for their futures. Be sure to include them in the projected statistics about AI taking over jobs.

I don’t see anyone going to a “Computers” restaurant across the street from a Hooters.

And for female business staff, corporate executives, cops, and airline pilots — well, they don’t have to worry if they’re just as qualified as any old male, right? So that’s a wash, as far as AI goes.

A good female engineer will always have a good job.

And a poorly-performing female VP “AI Czar” (who’s trying to pander to women’s votes with sexist new AI regulations) will always lose one.
