While wage inequalities persist (particularly in the private sector) and although awareness among more people of gender bias in our decision-making is increasing, perhaps we could use ongoing technological change as a catalyst for equality within our businesses and institutions ? Artificial intelligence (IA) has the potential to transform many aspects of our society, notably by offering unique opportunities for the emancipation of women. This article explores how AI can serve as a lever for access to education, support for female entrepreneurship, economic empowerment and political and social participation of women.
Access to education and training
Accessibility to education is crucial for the emancipation of women. My grandmother left school at 12 to work in the fields. I had the opportunity to obtain a master's degree. This does not open up the same opportunities (although there are always exceptions). AI-powered education technologies offer personalized learning resources, accessible from any connected device. These tools are particularly valuable in regions where access to traditional education is limited or non-existent. for example, learning platforms can adapt educational content to the specific needs of the learner, taking into account its starting level, its objectives and pace of learning. This not only allows you to acquire fundamental skills but also to explore more advanced areas. AI technologies being newly accessible to the general public, by getting started today, you will be on the right train.
Support for female entrepreneurship
Women's entrepreneurship is often hampered by a lack of access to necessary resources such as financing., markets and professional networks. Here, AI comes into play by facilitating the connection between women entrepreneurs and essential resources. For example, AI-powered platforms can use algorithms to connect female entrepreneurs to investors interested in women-led projects or to potential clients in specific niches.. In addition, AI can help optimize digital marketing strategies and analyze market data to make informed business decisions.
Economic Empowerment
In the field of employment, smart technologies play a key role in making the labor market more accessible and providing more flexible and better paid jobs. AI-based recommendation systems analyze user skills and align them with market needs, opening the door to professional opportunities that were previously out of reach. This can particularly help women enter male-dominated sectors or access leadership positions..
Political and social participation
AI also has the power to revolutionize women's participation in political and social life. By analyzing large amounts of data, smart tools can identify gender imbalances in political representation and propose solutions to remedy them. Furthermore, AI-powered online platforms make it easier for women to engage in collective actions and campaigns to defend their rights and influence legislation.
As AI continues to shape the future, that some laboratories that develop these tools work to eliminate gender bias, ethnicities or even age, in the completions (AI responses), it seems essential to me that women are not only beneficiaries but also actors of these technologies. Proactive adoption of AI by women could not only transform their own lives but that of society as a whole, by building a future where gender equality and female emancipation are a palpable reality.
