Why care about this faddishness? Anyone with a desktop computer (or pen and paper, for that matter) can do cutting-edge research in GAI. So it's not popular with the VC's and military-industrial-corporate-welfare-system. The point is if you're interested, just do the research. You don't need $$$. If you want $$$, over-promise about crappy little web apps, and get funding that way.
