I presented a talk on the evolution of natural language pattern matching at the Game Developers Conference recently. Gamasutra has published the paper of it: http://www.gamasutra.com/view/feature/6305/beyond_façade_pattern_matching_.php?page=1

Thanks Bruce.  Actually one of our members suggested we start covering game based AI recently.  I haven't done anything about it yet though.  Know a good place to start ?

[bruce wilcox]

well, the website covering that is http://aigamedev.com/

Looks like an interesting site, I’ve been browsing through it, thanks for posting bruce.

I've contacted them to ask if we can use their RSS feeds

[Freddy]

We don't syndicate our content if that's what you're asking.  So no. :-)

Oh well..

Thanks for trying Freddy, at least you had the good will to ask them, other site owners might not have, I mean the site is putting out a feed if they don’t want people to read it they shouldn’t have it should they?

Just seems a little odd to me. Do you think they fully understand what you proposed?

[Freddy]

I think they did, I will reply just to clarify.

[Freddy]

Yep it's a no go unfortunately, they said the RSS if only intended for their site's members/users.

Oh well, it was worth a try.

It seems to me that "syndicating" their RSS feed would serve to bring them more traffic, and that's a GOOD thing, isn't it? 

[Freddy]

Yep that's what I thought, but they for some reason don't seem to see the benefit to them.

Perhaps but the site is intended for serious game Developers, Researchers, Universities and other devotees of implementing AI in and as an integral part of their projects.

The Free section appears to be a fairly small section within the larger acerage (So to speak).

It was a noble effort, Freddy!!
