But if you want to see some simple AI, because proccessor speed is not really were AI will start, AI depends upon how the program is wrote, by what kind of althithograms its uses(srry for my spelling), my Lego Mindstorms robot, learns how to sort bricks through TRIAL and ERROR, and its proccessor speed is about 8MHz so i has a simple AI but without the speed like the Roadrunner.

I am also an ME that has found that purely mechanical systems are amazing in their complexity and functionality and in their ability to be REPLACED by a few hundred lines of code. Basically I try to program in order to find ways to automate the "15 year old" tasks that I am faced with.

By combining a mechanical system with an appropriate electrical systems and a program it is amazing what can be accomplished. Unfortunatelly this means that eventually my job will be replaced by machines, but until then it keeps the lights on. well no machine can replace any job that involves people, such as a phycologist (srry for my spelling)it's not your spelling that's the problem it's your phrasing...

What's with all these questions?

what like manual labour?? or welding bits of car together?? I understand what you mean but your sentence is rather confusing!
