I would not ride that. The bottombacket area is one of the strongest reinforced parts of the frame, but thats some deep damage. I would fear it rips the chain stray in a bad moment. Might be fixable tho. Go see a carbon repair shop. (And tighten that chainringbolt, that’s what probably caused this in the first place)
See a professional (bike shop with experience of carbon repairs).
