Bongupalah Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 (edited) Seeing AutoIt is only a scripting language, but full of features that make it as powerful as a programming language, would I be wrong to suppose that any algorithm can be implemented in it, such as those which join and manipulate symbols, and make meaningful transitions of thought using them, as though the script were a brain? I thought, perhaps it can only be done in C++ or Java or C#, but it intrigues me to think that it could be done in AutoIt. If it can, I would like to ask: What features of the language should I focus on learning and using most if I want to do this. And in your opinion, will I be, or has anyone ever been successful when they tried to do this in another language?

kylomas Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 Any scripting language would be a poor choice. Your first task should be to do some research on current state of the art for AI systems... Forum Rules Procedure for posting code "I like pigs. Dogs look up to us. Cats look down on us.

jdelaney Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 (edited) If you script up the rules, you can make a confined process act 'intelligently'...but it still only knows what you provided it. Although a better word for intelligent would be efficient...or precise.

Although the definition of "learning" varies wildly, hence my advice to at least know what is current state of art... Forum Rules Procedure for posting code "I like pigs. Dogs look up to us.

jdelaney Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 (edited) True, I've seen youtubes of some app automating super Mario...and learning based on failing, and randomly pressing buttons to get further and further. I think it becomes more a database of failures than a real 'learning' exercise. But that's only one example. Looking forward to some paradigm shift.
