It's a great question that I haven't seen discussed on HN yet (though I'm not that active), I think this crowd is still very attuned to interesting but more deterministic problems technically.

This might sound basic but I keep coming back to this idea again and again. Alex Garland really did have the right idea with Ex-Machina, where in the film Caleb claims that he purposefully designed Ava (the AI robot) to have all the internal mechanisms shown, so people would understand always they are interacting with a machine. The point of his Turing test was to show whether they could see past the machine and still empathize with it as a human.
