> they just don't have enough useful data... I'm not well-versed in this, or not as well as you are, but this has been my conclusion as well about a lot of ML project ideas from teams I've been on. You need so much data to do useful things. Especially the magical kinds of things people tend to want to do. I think these types of datasets are on a scale most software developers typically don't see. Even with the data in hand, it's nothing like trivial to determine how to do something half-way useful with it.
