How can one actually take anything Emily Bender and Timnit Gebru say seriously?

Gebru always stuck to me as an activist rather than a scientist or an engineer. She has a strong resume but we all know how DEI is nowadays.

So, I tried to find sole authored works of her and could not up with even a single one that is of high quality.

DEI also makes people share authorship with undeserving people.

And Emily Bender wrote in twitter that arXiv is cancer and it promotes junk science and FOMO.

I don’t know enough about the field to know why I should not take someone seriously.

If you listen to the interview, you’ll notice that their criticism of the openai investors and statements make a lot of sense.

Could you provide some resources which would help me build a balanced viewpoint?
