Generative AI has helped make companies much more technologically progressive by automating tasks and boosting productivity. But when it comes to fostering gender equality, it remains pretty antiquated.
Only 36% of women believe the progression of generative AI can advance their careers, according to a recent survey from online education platform Coursera, compared to 45% of men. The platform’s AI enrollment rate is just 32% for women, half that of men, though women make up half of all learners on the site. But businesses can help boost that number, says Alexandra Urban, the learning science research lead at Coursera.
