This feels like a pretty loaded question. It seems like you can have math with quick wins, keeping excitement and interest. When you say "boring" math, are you referring to the overall content or the way it's taught?

Most of my experiences with "boring" math was because it felt taught poorly or I wasn't ready for it.

ML is such a broad canopy that it probably includes many who aren't ready for the math, and will find it boring. It's the same with the distinction between appliers and "methodologists" in statistics.

Breaking down "people getting started with ML" into what they want to do with it feels more tractable. Maybe it's an issue of courses signaling who they are geared for.
