Game AI Pro
I am just an NPC until I get coffee.For AI researcher Game AI is like  porn. It's cheap tricks and obviously fake but oddly fascinating. Sometimes you find a new trick you want to try in real life.Marvin Minsky once said "I bet the human brain is a kludge." If I had to bet, I would say that human brain is full of dirty tricks, incomplete solutions,  shortcuts and artificially limited problem spaces evolved to pick berries and avoid tigers, not to understand the world.  Combining many tricks together can create illusion of generality that is very convincing.
