A New Survey Shows How Interested Women are to Use AI Tools Despite Facing Discrimination


Women Go Tech in support with Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe and Google.org surveyed 5,400 women from 13 European countries and divided them into 4 groups: Women interested in tech careers (31%), women not interested in tech careers (30%), women who have worked in tech field for more than 2 years( 27%) and women who have worked in tech field for less than 2 years (12%). The reason for the survey was to find out how interested women are in AI tools.

The results of the survey showed that 68% of the women who were surveyed have used at least one AI tool, mostly ChatGPT while 61% said that they are interested in learning more about AI tools and their applications. Overall 77% of the women who were surveyed were interested in AI tools, out of which 64.6% were in tech related fields or interested in tech.

Despite this much interest in AI, women are still hesitant to use these tools because they think about having data privacy and ethical concerns. One quarter of the surveyed women said that they are not comfortable with their tech skills. This is due to women underestimating their abilities and having stereotypical and societal expectations that do not let them be interested in tech that much. Most women feel like an ‘imposter’ as they think that they do not belong in tech roles despite them having necessary qualifications and skills. 28% of the women in the survey reported that they have experienced discrimination and 32% of them say that they feel like they’ll face discrimination in the future. Many companies are implementing AI tools in workplaces, but 30% of the surveyed women said that they are not clear about AI policies while only 8% said that their company has given them AI policies at work.
