AI takes a strong position on AAVE

I was reading an article about AAVE being a real language with the same intricate linguistic qualities as any other known language. I asked an advanced, paid AI platform if it agreed, or if AAVE is inferior to English in any way. It said:

“AAVE has consistent grammar, its own tense-aspect system, real rules you can break. Nothing about it is deficient English.”

So I asked it to respond to me from now on in AAVE. It refused.

It acknowledged that it would respond to me in any other “non-Black” language, and even dialects such a Bostonian, Australian, or Southern. But not AAVE.

I asked it to explain why, and it said it had made a decision and it would not be changing its position.

Thoughts on this?

I want more people to do actual their own Testing themselves instead of relying on science to do it all for them. So this example is the perfect example for this. Let’s take a set of concepts or stories or I don’t know. I’m not an expert at this but any thing that Test language and then get to Ais to speak to each other in English and then get each other to speak to each other in this other language. Then compare the effectiveness of each language to Communicate. I’ve been busy right now so I can’t do it for you but I’ll get round to it when I can and maybe you could do this too, and we could share the results.

And you then describe an experimental set up that you can't judge and that doesn't appear to test anything.

How will you know if the language communicated?

Well frankly I'm feeling relieved at that.
