So, I think we agree and I may have been unclear in my comment. I didn’t mean to imply that the problem of AI bias necessarily is large/neglected/tractable enough that the EA community should be very preoccupied with it.
The reason I commented was that I read OP’s paragraph to not only say ‘bias isn’t the kind of thing that the EA community should focus on’ but rather something much more bold, i.e. ‘bias isn’t a problem at all’.
And I quite confidently and strongly disagree with the latter claim.
