Gebru is not an audio hardware engineer. I call your attention to this passage I quoted above:

Gebru presented her doctoral research at the 2017 LDV Capital Vision Summit competition, where computer vision scientists present their work to members of industry and venture capitalists. Gebru won the competition, starting a series of collaborations with other entrepreneurs and investors.[11][12]

And to the fact that she got her PhD in computer vision, i.e. the main area of AI research that the article seems to be criticising.

Her work experience is as an audio engineer - but again it doesn’t matter what her credentials are, she is wrong regardless and you are ignoring my whole point. She shows her ignorance of the subject matter (again willingly or not) when she applies her critique generally at Ml and not just at these specific applications - not sure how many times I need to say that.

>> Her work experience is as an audio engineer

Her PhD research is in computer vision and she and her co-authors are writing mainly about computer vision, but you spoke of "a lack of basic understanding and competence on the authors part". That is clearly incorrect and I don't understand what saying the same thing many times will change about that.

[jjcon]

Computer Vision is a domain and is not equivalent to machine learning. They overlap yes, but not necessary. Again though you have completely ignored my point again and again. The authors ignorantly conflate specific applications of ML with the entire industry. That plainly demonstrates a clear lack of competence in this area.
