Just tried to read the Wikipedia article... I hope I'm out of engineering before quantum becomes the new ML.

Let's hope good abstractions are developed so that this level of math isn't what we have to deal with on a daily basis. I could imagine that happening. The math behind how an individual transistor works is pretty hairy too, but we mostly don't have to care.
