In most circles, that is "not that interested in getting good at it".

It's really hard to be a generalist and better than all the specialists at everything. OpenAI wants to focus on the G in AGI, and optimizing for ecommerce is just not that interesting to them, so of course it can't compete with Walmart.

Maybe in yours?

Someone can want a thing, even very badly, without wanting to put in the work for it.

Conversely, someone can work very hard for something they do not want.

The linkage between wanting a thing and wanting to do the work to get it is not absolute, or necessary there at all.

Did they stop teaching "actions speak louder than words" in schools, or something?

		"Someone can want a thing, even very badly, without wanting to put in the work for it." Pretty much the impetus behind a lot of theft. Sure, there's thieving because people can't afford food, but that's all theft. There's theft because they are addicts and don't want to sober up long enough to earn money, so they still things. There's others that can't afford something so rather than saving for it, they just take it.
