The women putting the intelligence in artificial intelligence

Despite advances that have been made in women’s participation in technology education and innovation over the past decade, women remain under-represented in the information technology (IT) sector and in IT-based entrepreneurial initiatives.

The 2019 report I’d blush if I could published by the UNESCO is striking. It found that only 12 per cent of artificial intelligence (AI) researchers and just six percent of professional software developers are women.
