Not to steal any attention from Emmanuel, but if anyone else is interested
in this topic my friends and I have also entered the Young Scientist
Exhibition and our project is entitled "Artificial Intelligence - Future
or Fable?".
The relevance of this to this list is that we plan to use a Linux box and
UAE (the Amiga emulator) to put on display a program demonstrating some
simple learning. We hadn't enough time to do a full-blown Mesa
implementation like Emmanuel, so I had to dig out my old Amiga and copy of
Blitz Basic! If anyone sees our stall, remember that it's really a Linux
machine behind it all.
I'll see you there, Emmanuel.
