Gender Stereotypes in Professional Roles Among Saudis: An Analytical Study of AI-Generated Images Using Language Models
The study analyzes over 1,000 images generated by ImageFX, DALL-E V3, and Grok for 56 Saudi professions, finding significant gender imbalances and cultural inaccuracies. DALL-E V3 exhibited the strongest gender stereotyping, with 96% male depictions, particularly in leadership and technical roles. The research underscores the need for diverse training data and culturally sensitive evaluation to ensure equitable AI outputs that accurately reflect Saudi Arabia's labor market and culture.
