AI and women鈥檚 jobs, Therapy speak and girls, C茅line Dion's comeback
Could AI put women鈥檚 jobs at greater risk than men鈥檚?
Is artificial intelligence more likely to disadvantage women at work? Women make up more than 60% of the UK鈥檚 administrative workforce 鈥� jobs considered among those most exposed to AI. As unions debate how the technology could affect women鈥檚 employment, Nuala McGovern hears from AI consultant Ella Wicks and Bethan, who was replaced in a previous administrative role by an AI tool, about what AI could mean for women at work.
Have you ever said you were 鈥榯riggered鈥�, or casually described a repetitive behaviour as a bit 鈥極CD鈥�? Psychiatrist Dr Suzanne Garfinkle-Crowell joins Nuala to discuss her new book Girlhood, Translated, and her concerns about the growing use of 鈥榯herapy speak鈥� and self-diagnosis among girls and young women.
C茅line Dion has returned to the stage in Paris after a six-year hiatus. Superfan Frankie Jackson-Spence and culture writer Beatrice Hazlehurst discuss her comeback and what she means to her fans.
Spain鈥檚 football governing body has announced it will offer egg freezing to its top female players. Supporters say it could give athletes more choice over when to have children, while critics question whether it risks encouraging women to put their careers before motherhood. Former Chelsea goalkeeper Carly Telford and sports physiotherapist Michelle Lyons join Nuala to discuss fertility and female footballers' careers.
