The best part of Julia for me is just that it has numeric primitives built in, so the different ML etc. libraries don't have to implement their own (incompatible) versions. So Julia code can be 1/10th the length in Python, because you literally just plug libraries together, instead of having to pipe distinct data structures together. It also means the libraries are short and easy to understand, instead of having tens of thousands of lines implementing said primitives etc.
