Thanks Gergo! I've responded there and started talking to people about putting together core topic for AI. I've volunteer to be on the committee, but it seems that Quim already had someone else in mind. Either way, it seems like this core topic focus is going to happen.

I made a suggestion [1] in the ongoing discussion about the Wikimedia Developer Summit [2] in January that AI should be a major topic. I am not exactly an expert on it but my impression is that the Wikimedia movement is largely missing to notice the beginnings of a huge shift in user expectations towards smarter tools and interfaces. While there is some attention to it (as the existence of this list proves), I don't think it is proportional to the importance of the topic and the summit might be a good chance to raise attention.
Input from people who, unlike me, actually know what they are talking about would be very welcome on the wiki page :)
