报告摘要：Currently, research in the field of artificial intelligence is primarily guided by males, and gender inequality is evident. Only 22% of researchers who work in the field of artificial intelligence are women. On the other hand, artificial intelligence shapes gender relationships, creating new challenges and opportunities for various types of research positions and jobs in companies for women. Personal development and full integration of women in AI domain is of essential importance for whole society. Accordingly, more women should participate in design, implementation, evaluation and debate on ethics and norms of the next generation of machine learning and technologies based on artificial intelligence. Only a meaningful involvement of women in all phases of AI systems' development should result in policies and technologies that turn digital equality into reality. Men and women should be partners and should proactively act so artificial intelligence would be better for everyone.
The challenges of artificial intelligence in relation to gender aspects are multilayer.
Design - Women should play an active role in shaping the new generation technologies, to avoid stereotypes and take into account diversity.
Application of such technologies and direct social / economic / political influences that artificial intelligence will have in an attempt to reduce gender inequality.
Collateral effects of digitization strategies to the future of work and opportunities for women's advancement.
Also, several ethical aspects of AI and their influences on modern society will be considered.
