We do not have to maintain a separated list on wiki because we already 
have the FAS group @machine-lerning-sig which has its own page on 
src.f.o: https://src.fedoraproject.org/group/machine-learning-sig

The list is currently empty and I haven't had time to find important 
AI/ML packages and offer our help with a maintenance but if you know 
some, let me know.

Have a nice day.
