>From what I saw in the presentation, it looks like this is an entirely engineered system. Complete from NL-to-temporal-logic conversion down to theorem proving. If the system does any second order learning then he didn't mention it in that presentation, and you'd expect him to do so if it does. The part I found most amusing was the "applications" slide. It was sort of a "I don't need to tell you that there are lots of applications".. which is not something one can comment on without knowing the capabilities of the system. But from what I saw, I'm pretty sure its use in MMOs would be only slightly better than scripting, and would require a LOT more processing power. On the other hand, if it can do significant learning then I can imagine it would do well in the applications he listed.
