"The social impacts of computer vision" says more about the hype around the subject matter than anything. It's marketing, not science. Computer vision isn't that cool, yet. Running a deep convolutional network is a sales pitch by AWS to sell GPUs by the second.
I actually sell computer vision software - specifically designed to help reduce subjective evaluation of aesthetic material performance. Most computer vision is real prosaic. It's not scifi. You read a bunch of papers about horrible things done to marmot eyeballs in the 60s, build a discrete model because neural networks are notoriously hard to support in real-world applications where you have to explain yourself to a chemist, and move on. Her work is justifiably marginal.
