Stockholm: The objective for 2009
Submitted by cedric on Sat, 11/21/2009 - 17:31I was in Stockholm end of December last year when I had the idea of My World. My World is a simplistic world populated by males and females, which implement different behaviors like searching food behavior or like reproduction behavior. The idea is inspired by the excellent novel "The trouble with bubbles" written by Philip K. Dick. At one moment of the story, the author describes a scene where couple of people in a house were there to compete together to know which one of their respective artificial worlds was the most advanced.
Why a framework for Artificial Life?

As of today, we do not know too much about Intelligence and Artificial Intelligence is mainly based on concepts that already exist in the Nature: Agent Based Models, Neuronal Networks, etc... I think we could say that what we try to do is understand Life and mimic it.
