When was the last time you heard a"male（男性的）"voice assistant（助手）？ （1）EEHowever，a new UN study argues that this shows an unfairness.
The UNESCO report has looked into the effect of having female voice assistants. （2）CCBecause the speech of most voice assistants is female，it sends a signal that women are ready to please helpers.It's available with a hard voice order like "hey" or "OK".
Meanwhile，by naming voice assistants with traditionally female names，like Alexa and Siri，tech companies have also strengthened a certain image of women.（3）BB
This does matter because they come back to affect how young girls and young women see themselves and the way they have dreams for the future.It's almost like going back to the image of women that was held in the 1950s or 1960s.
（4）DDNowadays，80 percent of AI professors are men，while just 15 percent of AI research workers at Facebook and 10 percent at Google are women.
These mistakes happen because technologists do not have the diverse（多元化） teams and diversity of thought.（5）FFThe report also calls for more women to work in the tech field.
| A.Unluckily，the embarrassing situation will probably last for a long term. B.For example，in Norwegian，Siri means"a beautiful woman who leads you to victory". C.It says they encourage the idea that women typically hold assistant jobs and that they should be "soft". D.It's believed that the problem is a result of the fact that there are not so many women workers in the tech field. E.Chances are never，as most of the AI we're used to hearing is "female"，like Apple's Siri or Amazon's Alexa. F.To deal with the problem，some technologists have been designing a genderless（无性别的） digital voice，reported BBC News. |
