My first patch is in this release, it was for battery level reporting of a wireless keyboard.
The main AI assistance was in determining why my mouse's battery level was easy to see, but not my keyboard's battery level. Having assistance identifying the information pipeline (kernel -> UPower -> xfce4-power-manager) and then identifying which step was broken was vital for me starting the project. The patch itself was trivial, so no coding assistance was needed.

Good job :) It sounds daunting enough. Which model of keyboard was that and why were you having trouble with battery levels?
