Built to Serve: AI, Women, and the Future of Administrative Work
Briefly

The article examines the paradox of AI assistants, such as Alexa and Siri, which superficially appear as convenient tools but actually perpetuate traditional gender dynamics. As these technologies take on tasks historically performed by women, they displace real human support roles while raising concerns about care being replaced by automation. This shift not only challenges women's employment in these positions but also introduces the idea of surveillance in place of service, questioning the implications of 'replacing care with code.'
AI assistants like Alexa and Siri are often perceived merely as tools designed to help with tasks, yet they conceal a more complex narrative about gender and labor.
The integration of these AI assistants into daily life raises critical questions about the impact on traditional roles, particularly those associated with women in secretarial positions.
