This is one of the hype filled and most valley answers I've ever read. You even used the word "revolutionary". Jony is that you?

Put some reality into the conversation.

The OP's opening sentence asked for a project to make $500-$1000, not ride a hype wave.

Do you think that is a good reason to be snarky?

The title of the OP's post wasn't "I need a way to make some quick extra cash". Most people I know work on side projects more for learning and career development. I gave an answer based on that prior belief.

Sometimes, hype exists because things are genuinely cool. I feel this is the case for VR and smart tools. On the other hand, I'd be inclined to agree with you about chat bots, for instance.
