I agree in the sense that it’s lazy writing. But have taken it to be cultural, not racial, in the sense that technological biases against white men (regardless of the identities of builders of said technology) do not threaten their identity in the same way that journalism might be threatening to powerful men in an age of massive social change. But I’m not a white man so that’s just my projection. It would be good to see a list of AI projects or UI patterns or tech startup trends articulated by white men that feel threatening to their identity to round out the larger conversation around bias.
