This paper introduces a new statistical theory for debiased machine learning (DML) estimators in generalized method of moments (GMM) models. The proposed method allows for multiway clustered dependence without requiring cross-fitting, which can be inefficient and computationally intensive. The authors demonstrate that valid inference can be achieved by combining Neyman-orthogonal moment conditions with an empirical process approach, enabling asymptotic linearity and normality under multiway clustered dependence. A key technical contribution is the development of novel maximal inequalities for functions of sums of separately exchangeable arrays. AI
