Its certainly good to know that ML doesn't require a CS background. In my own case, My thinking was that because ML/AI has a strong programming component in addition to Math&Stats, my strong Hardware background might work against me. In an ideal scenario, i would like to develop AI/ML applications and wouldn't mind morphing into a SW engineer if the role requires me to. THough SWE by itself would be another steep hill to climb.
