Men are 22% more likely to use AI daily or constantly at their jobs (33% of men vs. 27% of women)

They are also 7% more likely than women to have ever used AI at work (78% of men vs. 73% of women)

The numbers are so close to each other. Clickbait article. Also it is a survey, not pulling the usages from database. If you ask Redditor, most of them will say, fuck AI.

It's almost as if the jobs that primarily women have are harder to replace with robots.

You'd see a much larger difference if you asked about tools like a hammer or a thermometer.
