INTRODUCTION cf methodology
SUMMARY OF THE TEXT
FROM LINE 1 TO 4
The text that we wil delve into underlines the impact of AI on the job market as a whole but more particularly on femaile workers
Indeed AI will allow automation to improve and be widespread.It will thus replace workers in manual and repetitive tasks in the years to come.
FROM LINE 5 TO 9
Thes jobs can be found mainly in the food, retail and customers services where women are the most likely to be.
As a matter of fact most women work in this low skilled, low paid jobs mostly because they cannot focus on their career because of their domestic duties.
Minorities such as Black and hispanic workers find themselves in the same situation all the more as they are not highly educated.
FROM LINE 10 TO 13
Thus the only solution for this category of employees will be to change jobs.
Therefore they will also have to acquire new skills by getting some training or going back to school which is not going to be easy fro women.
As a consequence women are bound to ( be bound to = vont forcément) lose their jobs and not be able to find a new one.
FROM LINE 14 TO THE END
The text ends by highlighting the domains in which jobs could be found in the future such as the green economy, health care.
These occupations are not easily performed by AI .So they will be preserved.
Still the text ends by emphasizing ( to emphasize = to underline) that AI will transform some current = existing jobs while making some jobs redundant = obsolete which is stating the obvious ( to state the obvious = enforcer des portes / dire qqchose de évident)
