And just for clarity, I do think there's a racial diversity problem, too. But that's been widely covered by mainstream media over the years. I can't think of any media articles talking about wealth and class diversity in technology though.

localzuk (localzuk@ohai.social)'s status on Sunday, 25-Feb-2024 22:23:19 JST localzuk One of the biggest flaws in modern technology is lack of diversity.
Not racial diversity. No.
I'm talking about class and wealth diversity.
How many working class people are involved in creating AIs? The answer is simple - not many. Simply because that's how our education systems work.
You can follow this lack of diversity back to government. Look at your representatives. Are they from the working class? Do they even understand working class people?
I doubt it.
