what is the difference between Applied Scientist and Applied ML scientist positions in Amazon? Is the interview process different?

There are people who are more focused on research and applied are those using it to solve real world problems

There’s no official difference, and both jobs will have the same internal code (Applied Scientist). But different teams will set up the loops to assess whatever specialized areas they deem important (and that may be reflected in the business title they use for the role). e.g. general ML, NLP, Computer Vision, OR, etc. Regardless, they will assess coding at about the SDE1/SDE2 level.
