AI resume sorting has had this problem as well.

There’s also the “unmoderated free speech zone” websites.

Other weirder shit happens too, for example my hearing aids seem to be less able to recognize that the voices of black people, especially black men, are people speaking to me. That’s less Silicon Valley to my knowledge but modern hearing aids are increasingly high tech and clearly are struggling with similar biases that other tech is.

There’s also a lot of issues with security technology like what you’ll find in airports and medical technology that isn’t prepared for non cis endosex bodies. If you have breasts and a penis you’re gonna get groped by the tsa because the machine thinks one of those is you hiding something. Heck medical technology often isn’t prepared for women or people of color either.

This is definitely one of the less prevalent squares on the board but tech definitely does have a bit of a naïveté to it where they don’t think about how things like medical and search history could be used by the government against users or how anyone able to say anything they want or find anyone they want could go disastrously for some people.
