Ada LoveLace Day @ Monash University

14 October 2025 @ 11:00 am - 12:30 pm
Free

Artificial intelligence is changing the world of work at lightning speed – but what does this shift mean for women in technology and beyond?

Currently, women make up only about 30 per cent of Australia’s ICT workforce. As AI begins to shape processes like recruitment, promotions and salaries, there’s a real concern that hidden biases within algorithms could reinforce existing inequalities, including widening the gender pay gap.

This Ada Lovelace Day, hear from top voices in AI research and industry as they unpack how emerging technologies are reshaping women’s roles in the workplace. The discussion will also be open for audience questions – your chance to join the conversation on this critical issue.

This Ada Lovelace Day, the Faculty of IT invites all Monash STEM staff and graduate research to celebrate the achievements of women in STEM. Join us to:

  • explore how AI is transforming women’s work, with insights from leading AI thought leaders in industry and academia
  • test your knowledge in a fun quiz about trailblazing women in tech throughout history
  • connect with Monash’s STEM community over morning tea.
