Iāve heard from women I know in this community that they are often shunted into low-level or community-building roles rather than object-level leadership roles. Does anyone else have knowledge about and/āor experience with this?
Could you expand a bit on how this would look like? How are they being āshuntedā, what kind of roles are low-level roles?
(E.g. your claim could be that the average male EA CS-student is much less likely to hear āYou should change from AI safety to community-buildingā than female EA CS-students.)
Ironically, I think one of the best ways to address this is more movement building. Lots of groups provide professional training to their movement builders and more of this (in terms of AI/āAI safety knowledge) would reduce the chance that someone who could and wants to do technical work gets stuck in a community building role.
