No, libraries like TensorFlow and PyTorch handle all derivatives automatically. You only need to understand the concepts.
Images, text tokens, and embeddings are represented as high-dimensional vectors and matrices, which are processed via matrix operations.
For classical ML and data analysis, statistics is more important. For deep learning, calculus (gradient descent) is essential.
