I upvoted you a little because I think the perception that the mathematical foundations of AI are too complex is valid. AI is actually pretty straightforward from what I can tell, but it has a problem with notation. I think that probability and quantum mechanics also suffer from (context-heavy?) notation and steep learning curves. I'm hopeful though that as more people dabble in AI that the notation problems will be alleviated somewhat. My gut feeling is that its abstractions are still too low-level, like the early days of CS when people worked with binary, assembly or even LISP. Once we begin to see the forest for the trees (something analogous to MATLAB or Elixir but for AI), then I think we'll finally see the utility of AI realized for mainstream developers.
