After internal chaos earlier this month, OpenAI replaced the women on its board with men. As it plans to add more seats, Timnit Gebru, Sasha Luccioni, and other AI luminaries tell WIRED why they wouldn't join.

It doesn't need to be a "prominent" woman (AKA a rich person).

How about a woman who is passionate and knowledgeable, rather than just one who is rich?

If they aren't themselves rich, they might vote against the interests of the rich and then might get vocal about why they were then ousted, which makes the illusion of capitalism being amazing for everyone a bit harder to buy.
