"Women are significantly more likely than men to work in jobs that are most exposed to the impact of artificial intelligence (AI), a report has found. Almost 60 per cent of jobs assessed as at risk of change from AI in London are filled by women, data from the Greater London Authority (GLA) suggests."
"The report found 8 per cent of women working in London are in roles with a high risk of change from AI, compared to 4 per cent of men. Administrative and customer service occupations are thought to be most at risk."
"More than 300,000 administrative roles in the city face the highest risk of exposure because their tasks align most closely with GenAI capabilities. Women are overrepresented in these occupations in which generative AI is highly capable."
"However, the report stressed exposure is not a forecast of job losses, but instead indicates where job changes may occur due to the rise of automation."
A report indicates that women in London are significantly more likely to work in jobs exposed to artificial intelligence (AI). Nearly 60% of jobs assessed as at risk from AI are held by women, despite them comprising only 45% of the workforce. The report highlights that 8% of women in London occupy roles with a high risk of AI change, compared to 4% of men. Administrative and customer service jobs are particularly vulnerable, with over 300,000 administrative roles facing high exposure to generative AI capabilities.
