London — Macho work cultures are driving away young women from data science jobs, say analysts, warning a failure to diversify the male-dominated sector could result in biased technology that discriminates against women.
“If we start building models with biased teams, we are going to run into a number of longer-term effects including ethics issues and models propagating a bias we’re trying to stop.” But the sector is failing to attract a wider pipeline of female talent in entry-level jobs, found the report, based on surveys of more than 9,000 students and recent graduates with data-related degrees in about a dozen countries.
The report called on companies to deal with the sector’s “image problem” among women, including by building more inclusive and collaborative cultures.
Ye the notorious macho culture of data science.....
could or couldn't ...what a load of crap as social pseudo- scientific writing for a horoscope..
