Not sure I would call it "genius" or the emergence of latent "talent", terms which suggest a positive judgment of the work produced... Rather it seems like obsession. It is a very curious phenomenon, and I wonder if it can tell us anything useful about the psychology of motivation and interest. Calling it "sudden genius" feels clickbaity.
