I gotchu. First thing you need to do is learn Python. You don't need to be a master by any means but you should understand variables, expressions, functions, classes, packages/dependencies, file systems, and basic algebra. Run through this amazing book and you'll understand plenty to get into the ML side of things.

Once you know a bit of Python complete this course Practical Machine Learning for Coders. This is an extremely highly regarded modern crash course to machine learning that is bringing a lot new people into the industry. In the very first lesson you'll build an image classifier that didn't even exist 5 years ago.

As you go deeper and deeper Math becomes more important but CS isn't really necessary.
