The Future is Fem[AI]le - Using AI to Bridge the Gender Gap at work - By the Women’s Forum

Faced with the persistent underrepresentation of women in artificial intelligence — both in the professions that shape it and in the uses it transforms — the exclusive report The Future is Fem[AI]le, led by the Women’s Forum, proposes a different path: one of inclusive, strategic AI that drives shared progress. What if AI could help women to leapfrog? What if AI could bring more women in STEM? What if AI could mentor women towards equal opportunities? What if AI became a gateway to women economic inclusion? Based on interviews with experts from the corporate, academic, legal, scientific, and institutional worlds, this report shows that the future is still open — and explores four key directions. Join us at Vivatech to meet three of our experts and listen to their hand-on feedbacks on how to turn this technological transformation into an economic and social opportunity for women — and beyond.
