What happens when the AI tools we rely on start echoing the same biases women have been pushing against for generations? In this episode of Her Unshakeable Confidence, Simone and Olivia Knego unpack a John Hopkins’ study showing that prompts written in language patterns associated with women produced less formal, less sophisticated writing.
They talk about hedging, saying please and thank you to AI, and why fixing the bias should be the responsibility of AI developers. From women filling law and medical school classrooms while holding only 19% of CEO roles, to celebrating women for their accomplishments beyond being “the first,” this conversation is a reminder that your voice and your confidence belong to you.
✅ Actionable Takeaways
- Notice the hedges and qualifiers you use in your prompts, emails, and conversations.
- Review and edit everything AI writes for you before you send it.
- Keep your own word choices and use AI as a tool to support your thinking.
- Adjust your AI settings so you get direct, honest feedback.
- Celebrate women for what they accomplish, beyond being “the first female.”
- Remember you have the power over how you show up and communicate.
