Artificial Life is an independent field to Artificial Intelligence, so I don't see how you can say that. True there is some cross-pollination, mostly ALife => AI, but sometimes AI philosophical issues has some relevance to ALife. An example of the difference: it is relatively easy to define and measure intelligence. Its virtually impossible to do the same for life. -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Prof Russell Standish Phone 0425 253119 (mobile) Principal, High Performance Coders Visiting Professor of Mathematics [email protected] University of New South Wales http://www.hpcoders.com.au ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
