In the macro-policy context of the “AI +” initiative, based on the theories of scale politics and emotional labor, an analytical framework incorporating the elements of “technology-space-gender” is constructed. Taking the digital employment project implemented in Y County, S Province as a case study, this paper systematically reveals the practical mechanisms and predicaments of digital employment for women in underdeveloped counties. The research finds that non-profit organization and social enterprises promote the demystification of technology through skills training, helping women in underdeveloped counties break through the barriers of digital skills. The proactive actions of local governments and the investment of public resources facilitate the embedding of digital job enclaves in the space of underdeveloped counties. Meanwhile, the productive embedding of emotional labor enables the value of women’s cognitive skills to be revealed. Nevertheless, against the backdrop of continuous iterations in artificial intelligence technology, women’s digital employment in underdeveloped counties still faces a triple dilemma of technological substitution, market compression, and developmental transition, manifesting as reduced job opportunities, diluted dividends, and restricted cross-scenario application of digital literacy. Therefore, a systematic approach should be adopted to build the path for underdeveloped county-level women to achieve sustainable digital employment through the step-by-step cultivation of digital literacy, the construction of county-level digital industrial ecosystems, and policies for supporting women’s careers.
