These pages are dedicated to the topic of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in games, a factor in game design which I'm pleased to say is being taken more seriously by game developers and producers than ever before. There has been a huge increase in interest over the past few years on the part of both game developers and game players, and I think the trend is only going to continue. Hopefully, these pages will help.

We cover just about anything, so long as it has applicability in some fashion to building better computer opponents. Note that most of what's presented here is aimed at a very practical approach to the problem; I personally detest over-analysis of anything.

Anybody who's interested in this topic, who knows of links I need to add, games which are doing particularly interesting things AI-wise, wants to contribute, or who just wishes to take issue with something I say is cordially invited to email me. I also can be found on both the comp.ai.games and rec.games.programmer newsgroups; drop by and say hi.
