    Yeah. The concern I have with these things is when a constellation of metrics is assembled for the purpose of decision making, each data element on its own innocuous seeming, but together they manage to encourage training bias. Which is part of the concern around machine learning models being used to make real world decisions.

    In this case there may well be a structural issue with the navy credit union, but I don’t think CNN showed that as well as they think.
