AI is complex but if your friend want to do a simple program on AI and willing to spend some time learn things like steering behaviors[flock,flee etc],state machines then a simple 2d sports simulation is not hard.It requires knowledge of basic math,physics etc and any 2d graphics SDK like SDL,SFML etc.
This book is highly recommended for learning basic AI.

SFML
SDL

Or you may also try something related to machine learning. OpenCV has many functions for that, though I feel ML is very tough.

I had made a game of checkers. Quite fun. Not as complex as chess .A quick read-up of min-max algorithm with alpha-beta pruning will be a good start. Obviously GUI would be one of the API's above or Win32 if he is brave enough.

Try this ai-class OR Machine Learning depending on what you like.They start from the very basics and they are taken by the stanford professors who are the pioneers in their fields.

If you're not into taking video lessons just read up about neural networks and start by applying it to a simple problem like AI for a simple game like pong.
