Guessing fallout from no studies on how to get AI motivated about/interested in/trained on cool side project(s)? (vs. human factor of using side projects as way to learn/master/showcase talent with side effect(s) of generating a 'cool' project(s)[5]).

Alteratively, AI intended as automated assistant. So, AI has shifted the base knowledge/skill set(s) one needs to do 'cool stuff'. aka no emacs/lisp/unix for dna computer for hacker/hobbiest yet.[0][1][2][3][4]
