I did some searches on the site, and very little has actually been discussed about Artificial Intelligence--or so I found.

I was wondering if any one has worked with it, specifically with perl, or otherwise, and how they think perl can be involved. AI is an important issue in computer programming(in particular, in games), and I was also wondering what were some common techniques some people have used.

Personally, I know that one vital aspect of AI is a look-up table, so to say, of past events; a memory, if you will. Also, to make characters smarter in a game, you can make new instances of those characters by borrowing some elements that can be within a certain range from two other parents--which are the same type, but have survived whereas others have not. This gives an effect of natural selection: "survival of the fittest".

That aside, however, I was wondering specifically as to where the future of AI lies, specifically with Perl. Is there anything special about it that makes it easier?

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
