      Cool. They done such experiments digitally before, to study the evolution of neural circuits. Could have interesting results.

      soft she stirs on starlit sand,
      and clasps wet shore within her hand.
      she turns to face the silent seas,
      and through her heart, a vital breeze.
      she wonders at this strange new land.

      Darn, I just realized I can't use this as a science fair project. (DARN YOU SWISS!)

      That's a really cool article O. I wished there was a picture as to what these "micro-bots" looked like and them in action. Ah well.

      Yeah that's so cool, too bad we've been forming societies for millennia now

      AI developers better step up, I'm not impressed.

      Run in terror...


      Am I the only one who thinks man-power is better than machine?

      I've read this one before. I'd like to see the code they used, heh. So that I'd know how much of their possible behavior development was influenced by humans, and how much was genuine.

      I also like how the picture in the article seems to suggest these "evolving robots" are highly humanoid in appearance (when they aren't).

      Boy, that dumbass sure is smart.

      I too am wondering how much human intervention went on in their re-programming.
