People who think Ruby can't serve machine learning use cases for one reason or another should be confused as to why Python is so strong in this arena. Python happens to have more of a culture and ecosystem built around these use-cases vs Ruby, but otherwise it should effectively have the same shortcomings as Ruby.

Ruby on Rails is robust in its webdev tooling and conventions. And generally it is popular enough that it essentially has everything you'd "expect" to use it for.
