The Potential for Wage Gaps to Widen

A potential downside to the emergence of new AI regulations could be the unintentional widening of the gender wage gap. If regulations result in increased demand for highly specialized skills in AI and machine learning, and if women are underrepresented in these areas due to existing gender disparities in STEM education and career paths, the wage gap could inadvertently worsen. This highlights the importance of supporting women in acquiring advanced technical skills in parallel with regulatory changes.
