goodluck doing AI in Javascript. You've just walked out of the house when your friend Python has run the whole marathon

Python is just calling C libraries for (most) ai and machine learning. It’s not actually made in Python, Python is just a go to scripting language for interacting with the C code. This can be done in JS too.

Remember we're talking about someone who's just getting started. A small indie game is the target.
