Please keep in mind that if really true, it is not a binary thing. It’s a distribution. There are going to be plenty of women who are more interested in things than the median man, and there are plenty of men who are more interested in people than the median woman.
Wish people would keep this in mind for everything.
Still the problem here is we don't _really_ know whether this is genetic or shaped by our upbringing even when it comes to the most egalitarian societies. I'd like to see the same study done on the little left hunter-gatherers bands.
Recently I (male) was thinking about to change my work to something, I have to work more with people. The problem is mostly, it is very very bad paid.
Can't speak to gender disparities but as a software engineer as I have progressed in my career I have both been paid more and spent much more time working with people.
Does this mean James Damore was right? Or is there something wrong with this research?
I like working with people. But, working with things pays more.

It's not that effect being caused by upbringing makes it somehow unimportant, or unworthy of being there.
