## Caption

#Engineering is very much a patriarchal institution. Common ‘advice’ for advancing in engineering is often not useful or helpful since women face more restricted opportunities, less support, and oppressive culture. 

I particularly take issue with 'advice' for women coders/engineers to 'embrace' #AI. Women are more likely to be penalized for using #AI than their male counterparts
