> Hopefully the industry matures. I've bumped into data scientists who don't know how to do feature engineering as well as ones who can't grok ML. It makes the whole industry look bad.

I suspect that for 9 in 10 ML "experts" in the field there are corresponding 9 in 10 ML "jobs" in the field that are just hiring for the buzzword and seeing what happens

Have you ever interviewed applicants for software jobs? I think at least 9/10 applicants often have no idea how to code. They can write down some JavaScript, but don't know why.
