Woke college says top AI position is only open to ‘disabled women and gender equity-seeking persons’

woke Canadian college will not hire men or or able-bodied women for its new federally funded $100,000 paying tenured-track artificial intelligence position.

Dalhousie University in Halifax, Canada, announced that their AI research chair opening is designated for individuals who self-identify as women with a disability or gender equity-seeking persons with a disability.

The posting does not explain what a gender equity-seeking person is, but it is believed to be someone who promotes fairness in the treatment of individuals based on their gender identity or expression.

The new hire will join the staff as an assistant or associate professor and supervise graduate students.

The posting described the job’s responsibilities:

Dalhousie explained that they are committed to ‘achieving inclusive excellence through continually championing equity, diversity, inclusion, and accessibility,’ in the About the Opportunity section. 

They encourage, ‘Indigenous Peoples of Turtle Island, persons of Black/African descent, and members of other racialized groups, persons identifying as members of 2SLGBTQIA+ communities, and all candidates who would contribute to the diversity of our community,’ to apply.
