According to a report from the Brookings Institution and the Centre for the Governance of AI, employees in women-dominated occupations are particularly vulnerable to job loss from artificial intelligence, with over 6 million at risk, primarily in clerical roles. The report notes that while many workers in other fields may adapt to AI, 86% of those struggling to cope are women, highlighting systemic issues in job functions rather than individual competency. Despite the potential for AI disruption, experts suggest the immediate impact on the U.S. labor market is minimal, and workers are encouraged to engage with AI technology to enhance their productivity. Overall, the findings emphasize the need for proactive adaptation in the face of advancing AI technologies.
