As someone who knows a decent bit about machine learning, I can say Dr. Collier seems to know very little of how it works on a technical level, which presents such a beautiful contrast when I’m watching her be fucking dead-on about its societal consequences. Seeing someone who isn’t familiar with the field but still knows what they’re talking about is so cathartic in a subject strewn with misconceptions from laypeople. Angela’s integrity is really admirable; you can tell that critical thinking is a virtue to her and that she takes a lot of care not to overstep into areas she doesn’t understand.

Did you write this comment yourself?
I always do. I write as a hobby, and I’m not stuck here, so I don’t see why I’d be here if I didn’t give enough of a shit to write what I want.
