Women are significantly less likely than men to experiment with generative AI.
But when you look closer, the explanation isn’t what many people assume.
In this International Women’s Day episode, Kim Fernandez examines the research behind the AI gender adoption gap and explores what may actually be driving it – from constraints, risks and workplace structures, to how women evaluate new technologies.
Importantly, this episode looks at what most businesses are overlooking: the largest productivity opportunities inside their own teams. Because the roles most capable of unlocking productivity with AI are often the roles women dominate.
For business leaders and women in the workplace, this conversation reframes the AI gender gap as something far more important than a technology trend – it’s a signal about how organisations introduce change, where adoption gaps and opportunities exist, and how the future of work will actually evolve.
In This Episode We Cover:
- The real reason behind the AI gender adoption gap
- Why the barrier to adoption is so nuanced
- How women evaluate AI
- Environments where women have statistically higher AI adoption than men
- The operational roles where AI productivity is highest
- What business leaders discover when AI unlocks capacity in teams
- Why the future of work is humans orchestrating + working alongside AI
- How AI adoption and representation impacts the future
