To add, only 20-30% of women work in #ai yet women will be mostly impacted by its proliferation. I wrote about this and what society can do about this disparity in my #substack : https://lnkd.in/eaYtrShn #artificialintelligence #womenintechnology

👩💻More women in tech means more inclusive products (built for everyone). 👩🏾🔬More women in science leads to better women-focused solutions.   👩🏽💼More women in entrepreneurship equals better solutions and higher ROI for investors. and yet...    Only 28% of women work in tech, 35% - in STEM.  Only 10% of Female CEOs run Fortune 500 companies.   Only 2.1% of VC funding goes to female-founded startups.    Why?   Becuase of bias.  Stereotypes.  Lack of role models.  Toxic workplaces  Bro culture  Lack of sponsors Outdated societal norms   Harassment and discrimination    the list goes on...    According to research more diverse companies (including female leaders on boards) perform better financial not talking about better solutions and products, better company culture, fair promotion and compensation.     It’s Women’s Month. Don’t just say you “support women” and do nothing. Walk the talk: ✅Hire more women in tech. On leadership levels too.  ✅Fund more women-led startups. Big checks too.   ✅Promote more women into leadership roles. Invest in their growth.   ✅Become an Executive Sponsor of your Women ERG. Sponsor them beyond IWD.  ✅Partner with several women-focused organizations like WomenTech Network, Executive Women in Tech (EWIT) #womensmonth #supportwomen #womenintech
