There's also just the issue of the fact that there's significantly more books, articles, etc. written in standard english vs AAVE so that's gonna be a huuuge barrier to overcome regardless of diversity of development and training teams. Not to say diversity isn't important, but also that there's just certain challenges surrounding finding adequate amounts of high quality training data, especially for less mainstream concepts. It's the same reason an AI couldn't give a summary of a book that has almost no info abt it on the internet.
