IMF also noted that AI exposure varies by gender, as around half of all jobs held by women are considered highly exposed, higher than the quarter of jobs for men.

Earlier, Aileen Judan-Jiao, President and Country General Manager of IBM Philippines Inc. said the Philippines needs to make AI consumable, inclusive and realistic.
