Multiple research studies have highlighted concerning gender differences in AI usage and perceptions. For instance, according to research by the Oliver Wyman Forum of 25,000 working adults surveyed in 16 geographies, 59% of male workers aged 18-65 around the world say they use generative AI tools at least once a week, while only 51% of women say the same. Most distressing, the gap is widest among the youngest of workers: 71% of men aged 18-24 say they use generative AI weekly, compared with 59% of women.
