Absolutely false, I can't believe this comment is up voted. Undergrad Linear Algebra & Statistics is definitely enough for ML. In fact, they taught introductory ML at my old high school in AP CS, years ago.

Maybe for an intro course, but a degree usually means you are ready to work in that field. I’m not sure what ‘field’ that is but I assume they are looking at it for AI research.

There are AI jobs open to BS that are filled with BS CS grads. These BS AI grads are just more targeted towards these positions.
