Comparing the percentages of women in (data) engineering positions at places like Google and other big companies to men in the same position gives a depressing message, although it has gotten better in the last few years. (Put aside any messages from folks who deny there is a problem or that women aren’t as qualified for STEM work as men — debunked ideas don’t need to be addressed.)

It is even more interesting to look at the situation in China, where the big AI companies (who are, in many ways, ahead of the game here) have percentages of women in all roles that are higher across the board than companies here.
