Grace Hopper conference reportedly canceled due to insufficient funding

On October 13, a user said the Grace Hopper conference was abruptly canceled because of insufficient funding. They called it the largest gathering of women in tech, said women are underrepresented in tech and AI globally, and argued that failing to invest in them costs society. Bloomberg reports organizers canceled the event scheduled to begin October 27 in Anaheim after sponsorships and registrations fell short of what was needed to cover costs.
