I keep a list of project ideas as they come to me, and when I feel like starting a new one and don't already know what I want it to be, I go through that list and see what appeals to me.
I don't do side projects with a goal of commercializing them. They're hobbies.

For learning, pick one that solves a problem just for you.
For research, pick an existing project and make it efficient.
For building a startup, pick one that solves a problem for many people and makes money.

Now it most likely is going to be 98% of startups failing.
