ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE AND THE INTEGRATION OF WOMEN IN THE LABOR MARKET
This article examines the impact of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies on women’s integration into the labor market and the
achievement of gender equality. Drawing on reports from international organizations such as the ILO, OECD, UNDP, and the
World Economic Forum, as well as relevant academic literature, the study highlights both opportunities and risks associated with
women’s participation in the era of digital transformation. Findings indicate that AI can create new opportunities for women by
partially automating jobs; however, the lack of digital skills and algorithmic bias may exacerbate existing gender disparities.
Therefore, it is essential to integrate gender perspectives into AI policy, promote women’s participation in STEM fields, and
strengthen digital literacy to ensure inclusive and equitable outcomes.
