See a book called Intro to Evolutionary Computing by Eiben Smith. Optimisation, modelling, simulation are the results. Now you are going to counter "well, it's still narrow and preprogrammed." But then that gets back to the problem of moving the goal posts around in AI. It's creative given the present state of AI, does it scale up to your expectations? Probably not at this point. But, it's creative to an extent. I'm not here to sell you on AI, though, just to give you an example (one fucking example that is). ------------------------------------------- AGI Archives: https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/303/=now RSS Feed: https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/rss/303/21088071-c97d2393 Modify Your Subscription: https://www.listbox.com/member/?member_id=21088071&id_secret=21088071-2484a968 Powered by Listbox: http://www.listbox.com
