Too many mediocre men talk over capable women.
Study of problem-solving teams: Men dominate the conversation, taking 50% more turns and saying 69% more than women. Men with low skill speak more than women with high skill.

Excited to share a new paper led by our colleagues at #DLR! We trained AI to recognize 15 European fly pollinator families and estimate how confident it is, helping ecologists use AI more responsibly.
