Linguistic diversity is a human attribute which, with the advance of generative AIs, is coming under threat. This paper, based on the contributions of sociolinguistics, examines the consequences of the variety selection bias imposed by technological applications and the vicious circle of preserving a variety that becomes dominant and standardized because it has linguistic documentation to feed the large language models for machine learning.
