Strong AI doesn't exist yet. What one can get now is some degree of function-fitting; but that presumes you know the structure of your inputs and outputs. The much-hyped neural network, for instance, needs to be given a set of inputs, and needs to be told what output to learn. Genetic programming methods need a vocabulary of operators, plus inputs to operate on them. Pick an input set that doesn't work, or don't include the flexibility necessary to fit your output, and it'll fail; have too much, and perhaps your search will trend towards getting stuck in meaningless local minima. It's not a coincidence that many games prefer to have fixed scenarios with pre-written scripts for AIs that also get vastly superior starting configurations... and most games have far fewer tactical choices than Dominions.

You are a fool. You have no idea about scripting.

He didn't say that much about scripting... In fact, because his Posts are much more imformative than yours, I think that he knows quite a bit more about scripting than you. I am not commenting on that 'Evolving AI' -stuff, mainly because I am not sure did I understand it. But if you meant THAT as a scripting he has no idea about, I quess that you are a total fool. I would like to say troll, but I'm afraid they would come to eat me if they heard me say so...
