Simply put, without the vocabulary of linear algebra, including all the calculus of loss and error functions, gradient descent, even backprop is the chain rule - if you can't do the math, do everyone a favor and don't embarrass yourself by saying dumb things.
Stats and Probability fill in for noisy data, inferential statistics, combinatorics, optimization theory.
But linear algebra is the vocabulary of these things.
