This paper critically examines the interaction between contemporary artificial intelligence systems and women’s human rights through a sociological lens. Drawing upon the frameworks of intersectionality, structural violence, and the sociology of technology, it demonstrates how algorithmic systems reproduce, intensify, and normalize gendered inequalities across employment, healthcare, surveillance, welfare administration, and digital spaces. Using globally documented case studies, including facial recognition technologies and automated hiring systems, the paper argues that artificial intelligence is not neutral but socially embedded, reflecting historical power hierarchies and institutional biases. While AI holds transformative potential, its unregulated deployment poses serious risks to gender justice. The study calls for urgent interdisciplinary regulation, gender-aware design practices, and community-centered accountability mechanisms to ensure that artificial intelligence advances rather than undermines women’s rights.
